Engine oil Castrol or Lucas
Castrol Edge 5w-40 in my 2.8 2001 Passat, 3.6 2017 Touareg, 3.0T 2014 Audi A6 and Castrol Edge 0W-40 in my 2.5 2012 Jetta. Located in Minnesota. Usually run 5W-40 year round.
Jetta was picky last winter, so switched over to 0W-40 from 5W-40. Depends on how harsh the winter, might be a good idea to go 0W-40.
Castrol 5W-40 Eurocar. I live in the northeast and park outside. Car has been solid and I've used this oil since I bought it. 65k miles later, I see no reason to make a change now.

5W-30 Castrol Edge. FPRS uses it and has had very few failures on stock motor cars. I was also running it in my GR86, and Blackstone came back perfect on that car.
Castrol in my daily driver. The daily would have a slight ticking when warming up with other brands, not with Castrol, so I been using it for over 100k with no issues.
Have a look on Amazon they do some good deals on oil, I normally stick it in my basket and wait for it to drop.
My old car was Castrol 5w30 Magnatec, £28.50 for 4l on Amazon £43.99 from euro.
Using Castrol EDGE Euro 5W-40 after watching a EN owner on YouTube suggested it. Car runs great in this 110 plus days in Texas
I did 100k on Castrol gtx in an f4i plus tens of thousands on other bikes using the same oil. I buy it in bulk and it goes in the whole fleet.
Castrol Power 1 isn't a bad oil, but I'd say not the best either. I have only used LiquiMoly as an alternative, so far and I rate is better than the Castrol but it did cost almost 2x as much too.
Mine eats Castrol Syntec 5w40 like it's going out of style as well.
