bummer. Only thing I can figure is it was only for me. I bought original from amazon and they sent coupon in my box for 15% off next order.

If you click on their specials on website, I think they have a 10% off oil code...

Cool I'll check out the specials. Either way thanks for the heads up on the kit. I'll order at least 1. Was going to stock up like you but maybe I'll wait til they send me my own code.

ECS Tuning also sells an oil change kit for the diesel for around $91. Comes with 7 liters of Mobil 1 oil. Is that enough to fill the oil reservoir?

Why do they include the Drain Plug and Crush Washer ? Are those single use items ?

The drain plug can be reused but the crush washer is one-time use.

I'd rather have places that sell the kits leave the plug out instead of baking it into the overall price as the plugs can go a long time.

Make sure you get a new crush washer. They are definitely one time use. Tried to reuse one and it leaked immediately.

The new crush washer will also leak if one does not tighten down on it enough. Ask me how I know-ha!

My 2014 TDI takes 7.3 liters, but 7 liters will work. Overfilling it will cause more problems than under filling it by .3 liters. The blau parts kit give you extra oil which you can use on your next oil change.

I prefer Mobil1 ESP to the Ravenol, and buying the oil & filter through ECS is pretty similarly priced..

Since I ordered again, they offered me another 15% off next purchase. Since I'm oiled up for a year, thought I would share coupon:

rav04184

i think this should work even if you're not me. First come first serve.
