Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or OEM Volkswagen
I used Shell Rotella T6 initially on my 2006 BRM...but have switched to Liqui Moly Toptec 4100 and find the motor runs smoother on LM over the Shell.
2008 VW Beetle is a 2.5 liter 5 cylinder. Yeah, 5 cylinder. It takes 6.3 quarts
On my 2016 GTI with 211K on it, the only oil used was Liquimoly. From 0 miles to 200K miles it burned a quart every 3500 miles and that never changed at all.
Ive been using Liqui Moly for my E90s for the last few years now. Nothing but good results from my analysis reports.
I use Liqui-Moly Spec Tec 5w-30 in my ‘99 328i with 330k km on the clock, runs like a top
Liqui Moly 5w 40 - used this in multiple cars with no issues.
I use LiquiMoly currently, I've used Castrol, Mobile 1 and the BMW OEM. They all meet the BMW LL01 spec so not sure how much of a real difference there is.
The LiquiMoly MolyGen I'm currently using has an additive that glows under black light. Very useful in finding oil leaks.
I used to run 5w-30 liquimoly, i switched to 5w-40 and all my lifter and cam noise subsided after my second oild change with 5w-40. Id highly reccomend switching to 5w-40 liquimoly.
I have always run Liqui-Moly Longtime High-Tech 5W-30 (blue bottle) in my 2008 NCV3 144" Sprinter in San Diego.
Liqui Moly Leichtlauf (the dark blue bottle) 5w40: This is the oil I ran this sumer, and I'm on my second oil change with it. This oil burned about 2 quarts during both intervals, but did not seem to thin out or break down at all.
