Engine oil Mobil or LIQUI MOLY
Ich nehme nur liquid molly oder Castrol, man hört so viel, früher wäre es egal aber inzwischen sind die Motoren und der Kettenantrieb bzw die Riemen viel billiger/ empfindlicher gebaut, da würde ich kein Risiko eingehen wollen.
I’ve ran mobil1 5w30 for a few years now with oem filter on my 1990
I use 10w40 also from Mobil 1 high mileage. A lot of our engines will have a tick on start up or once hot, if so with your Motul, switch brands to another top tier on next oil change and see if your engine likes that brand more.
Mk7.5 GTI 2019, bought new and ran 0W-20 for the first couple years for warranty (approx 70k) and then switched to Liqui Moly Top Tech 4200 / 5W-30.
I'm curently at 134k and no issues, I'm switching to the leichtlauf 5w-40 on my next service for the extra protection and because I can get it a few dollars cheaper than the Top Tech 4200.
I changed oil with 80% Mobil 1 high mileage and 20% Lucas high mileage oil stabilizer in it, did better than just Mobil 1 high mileage 5w20 alone in summer, (very hot temperature).
M1 ESP is arguably the best oil out there. It does not shear fast, doesnt degrade with 5% fuel dilution.
I run Mobil in all my cars. The regular 0W-40 is cheap and easy to get, as is the 5W-30 ESP for the RS3. Right from Walmart.
Moly is 100000% better than whatever the fuck they use at the dealer. I swear, the moment I decided to start taking my VW to an indie shop that works on exclusively German cars, and asked them to use LiquiMoly, my car has run significantly better.
Liqui Moly is just mediocre MADE IN GERMANY oil. Castrol Edge Titanium 0w40 is a good oil, as is Mobil 1 Euro FS 0w40 IMO Redline 0w40 or Amsoil Signature Series 0w40 are better oils.
Motul. Really anything except Mobil 1, that shit kills EJ’s.
