As an additional word of advice. Do not use Mannol 5w30 C3 oil when doing oil changes. Use a high quality oil- castrol,shells, millers.. these cars are very sensitive to oil
my 2017 Passat got totaled in a accident this week, was at 205062 miles running strong off Liqui Molygen 5w-40.
Take liquimoly for instance, they only have certain oils that meet the VW 508 00 spec but many of their oils are the same weight. None of which will cause your engine to explode if you use them.
I would take a good look at the brake fluid and stale gasoline but the rest should be fine.
I've never had any issue with standard Mannol - my cars have always had it every 5k and I'm pleased with the results.
My Skoda gets fresh mannol every 12 months. No problems so far. It meets the VAG spec so all fine in my opinion.
I use 10W/60 LiquiMoly 365 days.
Luqi Molly 10w-30 with K&N filter in the winter. Mobile1 T4 10w-40 with K&N in the summer.
My GL550 has about 106k miles on it, just did an oil change with LiquiMoly 0w-40 and 2 bottles of LiquiMoly ceratec. Drove it kind of hard for a minute or so. Then noticed when I got back it had this noise.
Liqui moly apparently it’s not good oil, they’re just good at marketing
