I use Liqui Moly/Lubro Moly Oil (German synthetic stuff), can be found in Napa Autoparts, ECS or Amazon for a very reasonable price. I use it in my Audi and have had no issues whatsoever.
I'm running Amsoil in my 06 GTi and loving it. No trouble with that I can tell, I check dipstick every fillup occasionally have to add some but not a quart, not even .25 of a quart. I've got almost 72k on the clock I did my last oil change around 67500 maybe a little more, and oil is still clean. Car sounds no louder or different from oil dealer had put in it.
i run 5-40 amsoil in my VRT as well
I run VW. 502 Lubra-moly 5w-40 that my local NAPA special orders for me.
ran Total before but the 8v seems to like the Liqui moly more
It's a little more pricey but extends change intervals and has worked for me. Keeps engine temps a bit cooler as well.
Now i am referring to amsoil, Delo 400, mobil one turbo deisel truck oil.
in my Diesels i use amsoil or chevrons delco synthetic for heavy duty diesel engines.
i change at the extended interval and use only 100% synthetic oil usually Amsoil. I plan on using the same in my TDI at the normal service interval unless vw makes a full syn diesel oil
The only oil I used in my Audi before Amsoil was Mobil 1, and this far surpasses it.
