VW uses castrol syn. 5w-40. With their filter, I think manufactured by Mann. I've been using that but just recently switched to lubro moly 5w-40 with a Mann filter
To change oil for a 2011 VW golf, you do need a special oil filter wrench (14 Points, 74mm),as the new german cars are using a cartridge type oil filter. I got mine from ebay, made of cast aluminium, works like a charm.
As far as oil filters go, if things haven't changed since I sold my old Jetta, Fram, K&N and possibly others all sell the same filter made by Mann. They are literally identical to the Mann and original VW filters. Buy which ever one you can find for cheap.
in my ABA im running MANN filter and just changed to Royal Purple 15w40. car LOVES IT, easily running its best since i rebuilt the motor.
I had the blinky oil light at warm idle and random oil pressure readings. ... Swapped out to a Mann filter, and 20w-50 Mobil1 High Millage, the problem went away.
replaced in the last month: power steering rack power steering pump serp belt oil pressure sending unit rotors and pads suspension: KW V2 coils (1200mi) have stock also wheels: Rotiform BLQ machined 19x8.5
replace the oil filter with a German oil filter (Mann, Mahle, Kenelt(sp?)), check the air filter, replace if dirty
i use nothing but TOTAL oil and MANN filters straight from germany how can u go wrong and BTW for all you guys that use mobil 1 its horrible for dub motors you might as well be using exxon brand oil!
