Castrol › Engine oil

Edge 5w-30 did great for me. It's a great product, turning in the best 1.8t UOA I ever saw. There are PLENTY of great products dirt cheap on our shelves. I personally feel SynPower is most worth of my money, on a full price basis. Otherwise, I'll buy any other NAME BRAND synth when its' $4 or so. I actually nabbed a bunch of Quaker State 5w-40 from BigLots for $4ea. QS is a sleeper oil, esp at the right price. High moly too, great for break-in.

Pros: did great for me, great product, best UOA result

I used Edge in my APR 2.0TSI over winter, did a lab report and wear was minimal, actually the same as a Motul 5w-40 sample from the same mileage.

Pros: minimal wear, good lab report

This is a 2009 GTI, just over 27k miles on the car, and 10,000 miles on Rotella T6. Car is tuned APR stage 1 93 octane, and has a Carbonio intake. I had some concern that maybe I didn't oil the air filter enough, and it looks like that is verified with the high silicon.

Pros: good oil, easy to find

Cons: high silicon

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Mileage: 10000 km

Just stick with Mobil 1 0w-40. It's VW-approved and covers just about all operating conditions. There's a reason it's factory-fill on Porsches and Mercedes AMG vehicles

Pros: VW-approved, covers all conditions

GC 0W30 is PAO based oil. PAO and Ester based oils are much more stable and clean engines much better. People who need 502.00 approved oil simplly LOVE that thing!

Pros: much more stable, cleans engines better

Vehicle: Volkswagen

I am sticking with 0W30. Plus, it is better for cold start, which is one of the most important things!

Pros: better for cold start

Castrol 0W30 Made in germany, or as it is best known "German castrol." It is "thick" 0W30 more going toward 0W40. It is thermaly very stable oil. I used it on Passat B5.5 1.8T (2005) and there is more then obvius difference between "GC" and regular Castrol 5W40. GC so far is the best I used it.

Pros: thermaly very stable, obvious difference

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat
