Mobil 1 5w30 and oem Subaru filter. I change mine pretty religiously at 3750 miles. I know it might be overkill but I’d rather be safe than sorry and if my engine blows up I will for sure know it wasn’t my fault for neglecting maintenance.
Been running amsoil in my Vitpilen 701. Same engine and it's been great. I run the 15w-50 metric stuff though.
I’ve run amsoil in all my bikes and still do. Same with all my cars and trucks. Never had issues
i personally use ravenol now, but was a motul and shell user before.
I tested it myself on my 3.0T, pumped everything out with the extractor, then jacked the car up and pulled the plug, catching evening that drained out in a measuring cup. It had less than 1/4 cup of oil left in the pan.
Extractor all the way. As for The amount left behind, it is inconsequential if you are maintaining a short oil change interval. I've seen a couple YouTube videos showing maybe 3 or 4 oz left behind.
Did this every oil change on my sq5. Made it 180k miles before trading it in. Works very well. That was the easiest oil change I’ve ever done. Of the 15 minutes the job takes, about 4 of those minutes is actually doing something
I use an oil extractor on our 2016 Tiguan, my 2016 A4, and 2023 Arteon. All have done a great job and make an oil change an absolute breeze.
Castrol makes a Edge Euro 5w-30 and 5w-40 that is LL-01 and ACEA A3/B4, it's not going to meet the later LL requirements because it's higher viscosity and not as fuel conserving, also not low SAPS so potentially it could contribute to more intake valve buildup
Motul. Really anything except Mobil 1, that shit kills EJ’s.
