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 .
I’ve been using Valvoline full synthetic with a KN filter. Never had an issue
Been using Mobil 1 for over 20 years. Never had any issues.
Valvoline full synthetic with max life tech is my current favorite but I think I might be able to unseat him soon.
Mobil1. I use 10w30 in the Texas summer heat and 5w30 in the winter. 2006 c280 with 185k
Mobil 1 extended oil. Full synthetic 5W30 changed every 12,000km. Mine burns about 1 litre (pint) per every 1,500-2,000km. So I top up a few times between full on oil changes
I use Mobil 1 full synthetic because I also use it for my car, and if you send you oil off to a lab after you change it, even at 3000 miles the oil was still in great shape.
Ran Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy for a while and it was fine, but lately I've switched over to the Toyota branded. It's more expensive, but I only change my oil once a year because I don't drive it much, and I like the higher molybdenum content in the Toyota stuff.
i use valvoline 5w40 ...so those results arent so good?
