Engine oil Castrol or RAVENOL
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.
Even Ravenol, which is pretty expensive since it is made in Germany from Group V base stock. Great stuff.
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.
In the rare occasions I get it from there, I use Castrol or Mobil One 5W-30 or 40.
Walmart carries jugs of Castrol Edge SPT 0w40 A3/B4 for much less than quarts at AutoZone
Run it in my R, wife's GTI, and even ran it in a WRX I used to have. It's good oil, the analyses I've sent in over the years don't lie!
Castrol Edge 5W-30 for me. I live in Vegas where it barely gets under 30 degrees in winter even so it's a better oil for the hot climate in live in
Fa20 DIT..Castrol edge Euro..0w 40 winter, 5w40 the rest..111k miles, stock block, E85, 400ish whp, drive like I stole it..I change it every 3k, 4k a few times in a pinch...I also run an IAG street AOS
The oil i have run: VW brand, Castrol and Ravenol all 0w-20 that meets 508/509. Basically on cooler outside temperatures the oil does run slightly higher than on hotter days.
my vw eats full synthetic castrol 5w40. thats what the dealership recommended to me.
