2008 Volkswagen Passat
Mileage104,685Service Date11/5/2025Services Performed- Found low oil pressure warning coming on because of engine oil starvation caused by low level. Added 3 quarts to correct. Unable to duplicate oil pressure warning after level correction. Last service 6 months and little over 4k miles ago. No significant external leaks are present. Engine is consuming oil internally due to wear/damage. Given the high mileage, it’s recommended to add MOS (Motor Oil Saver) and EPR (Engine Performance Restoration) by BG and LiquiMoly to the engine oil. Customer approved.
