I had the same problem with a 2016 D4. LRA sorted it out with a software update. Important, as it wouldn’t have started if I’d left it. |

What is the capacity, surprised it only took 4 Ltrs. The sensor says it is below X and only resets when absolutely full, its not like a fuel tank. Try filling up again. letters not necessarily in the right order |

Yes, airlocks seem to occur every time despite trying my best to fill it up smoothly. That's when parked on level ground. I did hear that if it's parked on an incline, it's even harder to fill up.

Its worst of all if you park it on an incline with the back of the car pointing up hill! |

Got a load of the proper screw in bottles off of tinternet, much more than the 10L tubs but much easier to fill.... There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

I’m sure they do Stan, but suppose it depends on how far you drive between services.

Mine drains its tank from full in 6,000 miles, so it's less than half way to a service, but it's not far off the current oil change interval |

According to the doomsayers I may not be able to drive into cities in the future but at least I don't have to worry about this stuff in the present. Geoff |
