Engine oil Mobil or MOTUL
I have been using Mobil 1 Truck and Suv, and I picked up a few mpg's which is what I recommend.
My Blackstone Labs analysis reports always come back with great results for my Motul 8100 X-cess 5w40. I get an analysis of every single oil change. It's a great oil.
I use Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5w-40. A 5w-40 full synthetic is going to work brilliantly in your climate.
Have also used M1 TDT 5w40 and have had great success
I was using 1 quart every 1000 miles on my o6 2.0t GTI, I actual changed to 5w40 Mobil Turbo Diesel and have gone down to about 1 quart in about 2200 miles also check you pcv as they are notorious for going bad.
IMO M1 0w40 is a very good oil that may do well in many cars. It is a master at being built to meet manufacturers specs.
I used Mobil 0w40 in mine all the time
All of the 8100 series Motul oils are ester based. I will only run the x-cess 8100 5w40 in my GTI.
I switched to Mobil 1 0w40 european formula in hopes of better protection and less consumption. I have 51500 kms right now. I will check mine every 1500km this next oil change.
Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5w40 should be able to go longer-- but you need to get a Used Oil Analysis done, in order to determine if you can.
