Not a quick task. You need to pull the cowl vent cover off. To do this you also need to pop the wiper arms off. There are small caps over the nut on the wiper arm. Disconnect and pop the arm off the shaft. Then pull the cowl cover up or completely out. Then disconnect your terminals. There is a bolt that holds the battery clamp on near the passenger front side of the battery. Romove that and your battery will come out easily. You can get it out without taking off the cowl cover but I don't suggest it.

What weight of oil should be used in a 2002 Passat W8 - manual states 5w30 but dealership insists on 10w40?

Your dealer in incorrect. No car manufacture recommends 10w40 anymore, and hasn't for many years. Use exactly what the owner's manual states. The use of 10w40 will void your warranty. You need to find another dealership to deal with. Obviously this one cannot be trusted to provide correct information. Go by the VW certifications... VW 502.00/505.00/503.01 Check the Mobil 1 Site: http://www.mobiloil.com/USA-English/MotorOil/Oils/Mobil_1_0W-40.aspx The Mobil 1 0W40 oil is the proper weight range and is certified by VW. I wouldn't use anything but synthetic in my VWs... even if they were bone stock and non turbo. == Answer== Many VW Dealers on the West Coast use Castrol Syntec 5w40 in the W8 engine as well as other engines.
