5W-30 Castrol C4, never fails with my Clio. DPF is safe and sound, no soot, no weird smells.
Best oil for me is Motul 8100 X-Clean 5W-40 C3, or Liquil Moly. 5W-40 because I got more hot climate here (Greece).
5W40 Castrol Euro. I get less oil consumption than 5w-30 and it seems to run a bit more smoothly.
Castrol Edge 'Euro Car' 5W-40
Used to get a big white plume on cold starts but no more. Still burn a lot, but not as much
Best oil I've used
Yes you can I’ve been using 10w40 castrol ever since I got it and I’ve been fine
I would recommend Motul.
I’ve got Motul Sport 5W30 for my MY12 XV, which ain’t a turbo ofcourse????
But next time I’ll go for sport 5W40, as it’s better for long driving in temperatures like 30(+) degrees Celsius outside.
The Sport range is by the way also good again low speed pre-ignition.
I am currently using Motul X clean EFE 5w30 using it because it was Tuner/shop recommended by Dmann/Felix Performance who did change for me prior to a tune/dyno and I haven't switched back.
I use Redline but for a million years I used Mobil 1 car oil. Before that we used Castrol 20/50 petroleum oil
The Motul oil you’re looking at is pretty similar to any old big box oil, but it costs a ton.
Hi, I have a MK6 2.5L Golf that I changed the oil in at 78,510 miles (126,350km) and is currently at 81,260 miles (130,775.3km) only 2,750 miles (4425.7km) later. I happened to catch a ticking so I checked the oil and the dip-stick/oil pan was bone dry.
