Hola Scooterheads, here is a short video on how to do an oil change on your Genuine Buddy 170i. Be safe out there guys!! Like and subscribe!! Here below is the link to the oil filter. www.amazon.com...
Great info, thanks! I used to hire a mobile mechanic but I am going to start being a buddy to my buddy for all the good vibes she gives me every tine I ride!
Thank you! I obtained a 170i for free because the owner was just going to scrap it but im looking into fixing it up and this was the first thing i wanted to know
I have a 170i and I have done several oil changes. I would suggest to remove the other oil drain bolt first to drain the oil. It is a smaller bolt and less messy. Then remove the oil screen bolt, and be sure to remove the screen so you can clean it. Also, those oil drain bolts, and the gear oil drain bolt should be torqued when reinstalling them to 12-14 foot pounds each. You do NOT want to over torque them. Also, loose the canned music. I would prefer the silence over the canned music. I don't think that is anyone's favorite music. I would rather hear you explaining what you are doing. l
Hi @cathycriado1700!! Thank you for watching and supporting my channel. I have other videos on HOW to change them but not on when to change it. I usually do. (Oil every 1800 miles, and Transmission every 3000 miles.). Let's work on that VW!!☺️
So did you add the full 1000ml or extra 200 ml later? The service manual is a bit confusing. Says 800ml but also says 1000ml. The take away I guess is maybe 800ml if you don’t do an oil filter change and only oil change. And 1000ml if you do an oil and oil filter change. That’s my guess anyway as many people on other scooters in Asia change their oil filter every 2 oil changes.
