Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or Castrol
Liquidmoly 5w40 is what I use in my 2019 Gti 2.0
LiquiMoly is great oil. They offer oils that meet brand specific certifications like BMW’s LL-01 or GM’s LL-A and LL-B. So they’re a great option for cars with specific requirements.
For my 1.6 diesel I use Castrol Magnatec 0W30 Stop-Start C2 which was recommended to me by cox motor parts (great store for Honda parts)
Liqui Moly is the only oil I use. 198,000 miles and still purrs like a kitten.
been using LiquiMoly 5w-40 since brand new. change every 5k miles and let'r rip
ive always used liqui moly leichtlauf 5w40
It doesn't really matter as long as you get one that meets the specifications for your car which should be VW502 in your case. Mobil 1 0w40 and Castrol 5w40 both support that and are widely available for a reasonable price.
I’ve been using Castrol’s 5w-30 with the RN0720 spec (for DPF filtered diesels like yours and mine), it’s the best oil for thins engine. 100.000km doing oil changes every 10k and it’s as good as new, very good fuel economy and no leaks
when i went from liquimoly to motul i saw a 10° jump in oil temps. went back to liquimoly and temps dropped back down
Running LM 10W-60 full synthetic in my S14. After 5000miles I can't say one is better than the other. Does the job, still has healthy color. Motul was also fine, no debris in oil filter, normal discoloration.
