My advice; drain it and do it again...I nearly made exactly the same mistake with Halfords rubbish, their 'guide book' will tell you it's fine but it's not. You must have 505.01 for the PD engines (2000 - 2006 TDi) I use Eurocarparts always accurate and free delivery. I've used both Triple QX (for PD engines) and the more expensive Castrol Edge, both fully synth, both 5w40.

As I understand it all the 2000 - 2006 PD engines (which your 115 TDi is) should use 505.01 5W40 Fully Synth oil. (vw spec) I have the same, stuck my reg into Eurocarparts and called VW to confirm. If you go to Halfords beware their 5W40 fully synth is 505.01 in the 5L bottle, but 505.00 in the 1L bottle?
