Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or Castrol
Liqui Moly is good stuff, not sure about the other one... Personally, I run Redline in all of my high mileage VW's.
I run Castrol Edge in mine, the spec exceeds API SN PLUS/SP and ILSAC GF-6, coupled with a genuine hyundai filter
We run LiquiMoly 5W-40 in all of them. UOA testing of heavily modded cars shows significantly less wear on engines running LL-01 oils vs the LL-14FE piss water.
I use Castrol as it’s the OEM product and is cheap if you buy direct from Ford.
My more modern VW runs Castrol EDGE OE 5W-40 full synthetic. That's what my VW dealer in Utah fills cars with.
I use Castrol EDGE Supercar 5w50. Oil change 7000km ????. no problems! Mileage 150 000km . Car from 2014!!
300.000km - oil: Castrol Edge 5W-30 and a new vortex breather - without oil consumption
315.000km - oil: fuchs titan 5W-30 and the old vortex breather - around 1L oil consumption
330.000km - oil: mannol 5W-30 and the old vortex breather - around 1L oil consumption
345.000km - oil: eneos 5W-30 and a filter type breather - without oil consumption
Switching from Mobil 1 to Liqui Moly pretty much solved the burnout issue for me.
I go for liqui Molly 5w-30 4200 top tec for my r55 mini Cooper D
US manual states 507 can be used, but you might get worse fuel economy... Mine is about 0.3 mpg lower on liquimoly toptec 4200 5w-3p
