Owner reviews for engine oil
I run Penzoil Euro Platinum 5W-40 because it's regularly on sale at Canadian Tire.
Just updating! I used to put Castrol Magnatec 5w40 on that Golf, and the engine just improved from day one. Much smoother and with greater response to throttle, and the engine start got like 2 seconds faster, almost instantaneous.
If you want the best oil money can buy, read up on synthetic bases and high temperature shear strength. Oil is cheap, engines aren't, so ponying up for a tier 4 or 5 base oil like Motul, Amsoil or Redline makes sense.
Leichtlauf every 5k for me with Certech added in every 30k.
i just use liquimoly leichtlauf. really can't go wrong with it.
Liquid Moly Molygen for me
I bought a 153K kilometer 81 1.6 GTI and drove it for work to military bases all over Germany. With no restrictions I ran 160-190 kph as much as possible for a few hours at a time. It always used a little oil but I kept it changed with 20W50 dino oil and sold it at 280K still running fine.
After NGP rebuilt it, I noticed they use Liqui-Moly everything. After I read up on it, I switched to LM exclusively.
I was having some issues with shuddering when the engine warmed up. Put in Motorcraft 5w20 synth blend in my 2015 XLT 5.0 and it’s been running like a champ
