I use Mobil1 5W-30 in my R53. Checked with my dealer + that's what they use also. Served my car + me well for 135k miles so far.
I've been very happy with Mobil 1 0W-40 EP, which I've used for many years in BMWs
For quality and availability, it's hard to beat M1 0W-40.
I bought 5 qrts Mobile 1 Edge synthetic 0W20 on sale with a filter from Advanced Auto for $40, took the oil and filter to the Honda Dealer, and they changed my oil for $15 labor plus tax and fees, total $18. So this brought total cost to $58 for synthetic oil change.
the only oil you'll find at Walmart that's approved is mobil 1 ow40.
I will also use a zero weight synthetic like mobil one.
I just switched to Mobil 1 for the last interval and the engine ran much better on it.
I used 5w40 Mobil 1 Full Synthetic in my 08 Passat. Had such great results, I carried it over to my 12 R Line.
I did my 1.8T AWP valve cover gasket two weeks ago and I can highly recommend Mobil1 0/40. Used it since 3/2002.
Mobil 1 10w30 with a bosch filter up here in Canada. Haven't had a tick since I started using it, at 110k km my engine is in good shape to begin with though.
