my personal analysis’ on my s54 over the past 7 years using LM 10/60 have all been perfectly fine with low wear numbers.
I used to do Motorcraft 5w20 but I ended up switching to Mobil 1. It just performed better in the car and made the engine run smoother and quieter.
I've used both and have put over 50,000 miles on my B46 (b48) without any issues. I think the liqui moly might be a little quieter, but otherwise no difference I can find. I would not put a heavier oil than the engine was designed for. These engines are a little noisy IMO but that doesn't mean anything is wrong. I actually think mine is quieter now at 88,000 then when I bought it at 34,000.
Liqui Moly 0w20 6200 is what I run and a factory filter
Our engines were originally designed for 5W30, so that's what I use. Namely Mobil 1 High Mileage.
I have a 22 Tiguan and did the first oil change myself around 5K miles. This is what I ended up using. I found it locally so that was a plus, Mobil 1™ ESP X2 0W-20 .
Another happy Mann filter and Liqui Moly oil user. I currently use 0w40 because I’m in the frozen north, but used 5w40 previously.
Been using Mobil 1 for over 20 years. Never had any issues.
Mobil1. I use 10w30 in the Texas summer heat and 5w30 in the winter. 2006 c280 with 185k
I had consumption issues with Mobil-1 0W-40 in the W8, and Castrol/Valvoline 5W-40's showed signs of wear at higher mileage intervals when I ran a 10,000 OCI as recommended by VW.
