Liqui Moly for me all the way. It's made in Germany and their standards are second to none. We use their oil in our service department and in all of our own personal and show cars as well. Their oil test results are some of the best I've seen, I highly recommend using them.
Pros: best oil test results
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Castrol 0W30 (a.k.a. German Castrol :thumbup seemed to shear thin very little over a similar interval, which is why I preferred it.
Pros: shear thin very little
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
i got even better results with Liqui Moly(better results then Euro M1); a much quieter engine on a 1998 Dodge SUV V8 and a 2001 BMW with a V8.
Pros: much quieter engine, better results than M1
I bought a 5 Liter Bottle of Pentosin SAE 5W-40 Pento High Performance II Motor Oil from O’Reilly Auto Parts for $50.75. This API SN/CF and ACEA C3 Rated Oil complies with VW-Specification 502 00/505 00/505 01 and is Made in Germany.
Pros: meets VW specifications

Well the oil change itself is unbelievably easy and clean. The Motul oil works well for me.

Leichtlauf is great, I've noticed smoother overall operation in my 2.0 TSI Jetta and GTI since changing from dealer Castrol.
Pros: smoother overall operation
Vehicle:

I have been driving for upwards of 50 years and have always had good luck with Pennzoil products. Pennzoil makes a 5W-40 full synthetic Platinum Euro which meets the VW 502 spec and has gotten good reviews from GTI owners.
Pros: good reviews
Vehicle:
