VW uses Castrol Edge 5w-40, it's what they used for mine too, i do like Castrol but not the one made here in UAE(Sharjah), therefore on my RS6 i am using Liqui-Moly Top Tec 4100(VW approved 502, 505, 505.01) which is only made in Germany and i very happy with it, therefore i am going to use it for the Phaeton as well!
i know out of my positive personal experience with this oil and then every Blackstone oil analysis indicates low wear. i am a very satisfied customer which will only run liqui moly fluids on all my motors.
I agree with nickbeezy... Liqui moly is qualit oil... Its funny, the way i see it: it delivers better quality than expected... If you use the oil in addition to some of their additives you will notice impressive results. These results include a quieter engine, better mpg, better long term reliability, less oil burned, etc.
Feels buttery smooth now, lets see after a few k- miles !

Well, I did mine last weekend with Liqui Moly 5W40 and I have to say that the car does sound better than with Mobil 1 5W40. It might be imagination, but that counts too, right?? LOL
Liqui Moly or bust! i have been using the 5w-40 synthoil premium and ceratec with good results
I'm on my first oil change with Liqui Moly, been using Castrol for the first 180,000km. Motor seems to be much quieter since (1000kms since the change) Performance seems to be the same
i can only speak from experience and based on my oil analysis results... Liqui moly is an amazing oil. The motor is fairly quiet, the fuel economy is good, the performance is on point and Friction inside the motor (engine wear) is at a \"very very minimum\" or so the reports say... For all this, i cant help but recommend Liqui Moly!
I noticed that unlike all of the other S52s his engine wasn't ticking. I asked him why he thought that was and he said it was because he uses Liqui-Moly 10w-60.
