Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or Castrol
Castrol EDGE Euro is also VW 508 spec.
I just use LiquiMoly 0W-20 with the VW spec
The mechanic is absolutely wrong. You must use a 5W-40 C3 oil with the Fiat 9.55535-S2 specification, I use the Castrol Magnatec 5W-40 C3, which is cheap and easy to find, but any other brand with the correct specification is fine. A 0W-20 oil has insufficient pressure and film strength, and will lead to damage over time.
Liqui moly solved lifter noise on my old Kadett.
Liqui Moly Molygen 5w-40
I have a 450k km 1.9 tdi, and a 300k km 1.6 tdi, i always use 5w30 castrol, no issue.
I recently changed the engine and transmission oil in my car and opted for Liqui Moly, as from what I researched it withstands higher temperatures compared to the OEM.
I would only suggest using \"premium\" oil brands, like Castrol or Elf, in correct specification.
I did an oil change with liquimolly 5w-40 and added liquimolly lifter additive, and drove it for a week hoping it would go away.
Start by getting rid of that junk liqui moly and replace it with ROWE RS 5w40 (i can link many kits if need be)
