I live in Texas so use 10w40 Mobil 1 4t And k&n filter
If you are using VW original oil then stick to it and the service interval. 15 years 229,000km later mine is going strong. I did mess up by doing service at 15k km all these years. Sticking to 12k is best. Instead try iftex system D. Makes a very noticeable difference. More important I feel is changing the air filter more often. And compulsorily changing diesel filter every year.
Mobil1 is available at Walmart for about $25 for a 5 quart jug. I change mine every 6k miles per the manual (used oil lab analysis shows that\u2019s more than adequate for me), and when I had a rod snap at 114k miles, all the bearings looked new, so the oil was clearly not to blame.
20-50 Mobil 1 in the motor, 75-90 gear oil the transmission and the primary. I’ve done this on my 03,2017,2019,2020 and my 2024
You need the specific VW spec 0w-20. It has a bluish and green hue. Its for fuel economy and warranty, also for stuff like the fuel filter and the intricate other parts of the engine, running regular 0w-20 may cause problems.
Been running 87 and 5w 40 on my mk7.5 for the last 40k of ownership. She loves it, no tics stutters or hiccups at 65k miles.
Any A3/B4 euro oil. M1 0W40 is really good and well priced.
These engines need 40w either 5w40 or 0w40.. I ran 0w40 Mobil 1 syn euro formula for the 60k miles I had my GTI, it's cheap and readily available in 5qt at Walmart, thinner on cold start up it when hot is still 40w, it's also the factory recommended by Porsche
Im using Mobil 1 ESP 0w-30 which is a thicker Euro oil here in Upper Midwest USA. I don't notice any difference is sound, acceleration, not efficiency vs 0w-16 and 9w-20 in a 2024 Rav4 Prime XSE.
Ho una Golf 7 1.4 TSI 122CV del 2014 quindi con motore EA211. Ha all'attivo 157000km, da quando ho fatto 140000 km devo rabboccare 1l di olio ogni 2700km.
