I used to only run Castrol Edge or Mobil 1 in both my 5.2 and 3.0T. the 3.0T didn't seem to care what it ran, but the 5.2 would burn off both of those at a rate of roughly 1200 miles per quart. After having to do a yearly(25k mile) intake pull to clean the valves/intake, I switched to Liqui moly Leichtlauf for the 5.2 and Molygen for the 3.0T. 5w40 regardless of which oil or engine.
as before, the 3.0T doesn't seem to care other than a slightly reduced amount of magnetic schmoo on the magnetic drain plug. So, better, but not a significant difference.
The 5.2 has pushed the oil consumption into the 2000 mile per quart range, the valves only had maybe 1/3 of the buildup as before and I'm no longer pushing small amounts of oil into the spark plug wells. So, undeniably better for me. Magnetic drain plug looks better here as well too.
Liquimoly talaga the best.
Liqui moly user here. Almost 8 years na ako gumagamit ng Liqui Moly, satisfied ako and hindi na ako nagpalit. I'm using it sa mga motor at kotse ko bro
i'm using the liqui moly 5w40 oil in my R, as well as previous owner has also used this oil. I absolulely love it. i also used to use in my 11 GTI previously as before using this oil i used to use the mobil 1 0w40 in the gti, but since i've switched to the liqui moly the engine used to run so much smoother.
I too have a 2018 se and I use the liquimoly top tec 0w20.
I've been using the Liquimoly Top Tec 6200 0W20 with the VW508 spec.
I always buy engine oil from Lotus (Tesco). Shell Helix especially on sale.
Used the high mileage at oil changes on my truck in the summer and liqui Moly in winter. Both really great products.
using good quality oil (generally liqui molly) seems to be very much recommended.
I use liqui-moly 5w50 green stuff supposed to have better wear protection and I also add cerratech to it.
