Changed the oil/filter in my 2011 B5 for the first time yesterday (at 300 miles) since purchasing it new a few months ago. Some weird observations:
1. The filter housing - as first maintained by RE/dealer - only used one o-ring on the inside back, just behind the filter. There was no gasket under the filter cap, no o-ring on the front side, and no brass washer. No small o-ring was used under the cap spring either.
2. The filter cap with spring is attached to the gold-colored metal plate that goes in front of the filter with some kind of bolt. It's just all one single piece that pulls out after you unscrew the filter cap. Again, no brass washer used.
3. The old oil came out black, and the new oil now appears to have turned black in the oil gage window after a short ride. Not much metal in it, just a weird color.
4. The UCE kit I bought telephonically from RE with much conversation about whether it would work for the B5's is basically useless except for the filters. Like I said above, I only needed one o-ring.
Anyway, it took about a quart and half to re-fill properly (Motul 15W50). Since the change, it's now running better than it ever has! I just reassembled the housing the way it had been set up by the factory/dealer before.
I was disappointed in the UCE kit, and a bit confused about how the dealer/factory set up the housing. Taking into account RE hasn't updated its website to include much of anything that is compatible with the B5s, it seems to me like they rolled this model out without having anything prepared for it. I guess you just have to learn as you go with the new RE stuff?
