On the side of the pump below the red oel fill cap there is a plug. Unscrew the plug and fill until oil starts to run out the plug. (It does not take very much).

What kind of oil? Motor oil? Also does anyone know if I can use Power Steering fluid in the 240D? I don't know what is in it now and bought some PS fluid today. Heard Dextron 3 kills the seals.

Ordinary motor oil, nothing special.

You might want to see if you can siphon off a bit of the existing oil. Sometimes a little fuel gets in there and dilutes the oil.
