vs
Engine oil IDEMITSU or OEM Volkswagen
Reviews
Switch to Idemitsu ( Japanese oil ) - Manufacturers for genuine and even does factory fill for many, they are very premium oils with starting segment already beating the top shelf of alternative brands.
Pros: premium oils, beating alternative brands
Vehicle:
Toyota

Vehicle:

Idemitsu 05-W30 from Unioil kasi I cant find Castrol for my Mazda
Cons: cant find Castrol

Idemitsu is responsible for the oil that powered the Mazda 787b; they know the rotary like no other. I exclusively use their synthetic 20w50 and premix.
Pros: knows rotary like no other
Regarding brands, if you want to stick with factory oil without dealer price, Idemitsu is the brand to get. I emailed Mazda corporate and they said Idemitsu is the OEM for their oil.
Pros: OEM for Mazda oil
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
I use an oil extractor on our 2016 Tiguan, my 2016 A4, and 2023 Arteon. All have done a great job and make an oil change an absolute breeze.
Pros: great job, easy
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
I have a 2024 Jetta S with the 6 speed. Mine used about a 1/4 of a quart of oil in the first 500 miles. I topped it off and it hasn't use any since, now at 5K.
Pros: low oil consumption
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 5000 km
Vaguely remember having the oil and brake fluids changed for my 40k, and maybe a tire rotation.
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 40000 km
Eu 0w-30 folosesc la un golf 4 1.9tdi si sunt multumit, masina porneste foarte bine la frig, al meu drag motor mananca, si trebuie sa completez 100 ml la 5-600 km cv de genu.
Pros: porneste foarte bine la frig
Cons: motor mananca ulei
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Using the incorrect oil can cause damage and will definately void your warranty. Call the closest dealership and buy the oil for this oil change.
Cons: can cause damage, void warranty
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
