I have 27K miles on a Graf with no complaints.
Reviews of spare parts for Volkswagen
Mobil 1 FS X2 5W-50 + BG oil additives because of higher mileage (259k km), been running good for the past 3.5 months, previous owner used some Castrol 5W-30, so i wanted a change and test oil consumption.
I've used a bunch of different oils including Castrol Edge, Amsoil, Valvoline, Mobil 1, and Liqui Moly. All Euro spec. All 5W-40.
I was trying different oils because our Tiguan burns oil, and I wanted to see if any particular brand would burn less.
So far, Mobil 1 Euro 5W-40 burns about half a liter every 1000 miles, while all the others burned about 800 mL. So I'm sticking with that oil for now.
I have a 2019 stage 1 and switched to liqui moly 5W-40 when i tuned it. Been using it for 2 oil changes now and haven’t had any problems other than worse gas mileage obviously.
Castrol Euro in my mk6. It meets the VW spec according to the bottle. I've been using only that for 9+ years, changing oil at 10k miles or 1 yr, zero sludge, zero problems, original turbo, good compression, good oil pressure, etc. IMO it's very good oil.
I Use them for 10k oil changes for my wifes jetta ...good filter.....I buy 10 at a time......
Them Autolites are sweet, if they were edible I'd ask for them in my Kung Pow?
A few month after the gdi cleaner I started to get a couple misfire on cylinder 1 during startup. It was not bad enough to really noticed but would though an engine code then go away every other week. After some troubleshooting I came to the conclusion that is was probably my fuel injectors.
I got a new car a month ago that came with a IHI IS38. I got my tune from sneaky tuned and after about 2-3 pulls at 30psi the turbo popped. Spit the rear turbine out into the exhaust.
I have the SRE with metallic disk in my 2010. It sucks for DD
