I got some Castrol Edge Titanium FST 0W40 which is VW502 00 approved. I decided to try this oil as their name is on the oil filler cap, as in the past with other cars I always used Mobil 1 0W40.
Castrol Edge European formula 5W-30. Closest thing to group IV you can easily find in the states.
I switched from the lm to Castrol and it works as intended at a much more affordable cost.
I use 5w40 Castro’s European blend in my 06 e60 530xi and it seems like it does the job.
I used Castrol Edge 5w40 last oil change and the engine feels smooth and burns little to no oil.
I used Castrol GTX 10W-40 High mileage and never had issues.
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum or Castrol Edge are probably the best all round oils.
I put 5w40 in mine, that's what is recommended for mk6 at all temps. Summer or winter months. I use Castrol Edge Full Synthetic high mileage, works a charm.
The 0-20 Castrol VW Spec oil I buy from my dealer is cheaper than any 0-20 from Walmart or auto parts stores. My 2019 GSW has 16,000 miles and uses next to no oil between changes. I have averaged over 40 mpg for the 16K miles.
I've used mobil 1 20-50 for the last three oil changes and had really bad ticking noise from the head. This last oil change I used casterol GTX and have had a lot less ticking since. I'm no longer sold on mobil 1 for the rocco.
