★ Top Answer
The recommended oil for the 2017 VW GTI is the SAE 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil, which requires about five quarts. To start the oil change, ensure that the car has been parked and turned off for a couple of hours to let the engine cool down. Locate the oil pan in the engine compartment and find the drain plug underneath. Place a bucket beneath the plug and remove it to let the oil drain into the bucket. Allow it to drain completely, which could take up to an hour. Once it stops dripping, replace the drain plug. Locate the intake port on the top of the oil pan and fill it using a funnel, making sure not to overfill. It's okay to be slightly under the full mark, but overfilling can cause leaks and oil burnoff. After filling the oil, close the port, clean up any spilled oil, and your oil change is complete.
