Engine oil OEM Honda or FUCHS
Been running Fuchs 5W40 lately, N52 with 130k kms
I use Fuchs Titan SuperSyn 5W-40 - widely considered to be the lowest-consumption oil for the M54 engine, and it's very cheap.
Mann filter.
Fuchs Titan 5w30
My experience with oil consumption - 5W30 VW - First oil used by me in this car - 2000km - 200 ml added 5W40 Fuchs Titan Race Pro S - Now in the engine - 1000km - Same level as it was at the revision
Fuchs Silkolene. Good stuff.
My 15 S4 has seen 3 oils in <10k miles. The factory fill was Fuchs. Dealer first change was PP Euro and my latest change the other week was with M1. I've run M1 0w40 Euro in my B5 forever and have had 0 issues with it. Saw no reason to not continue running it in the B8.
Dark oil is actually a good thing believe it or not. It means that the oil is doing it's job and holding all the contaminants in suspension. In fact if my oil would look clear at the oil change I'd be very concerned and most probably change the brand.
The Fit is an awesome car. I have an 09 that has ~66k miles and NOTHING has gone wrong. Just the scheduled maint., oil changes (10-12k miles), and thats it.
i changed mine @62k miles with similar results. i to change my oil around 5k and was useing m1 0w-40, but just recently started useing fuchs titan oils.
I've posted my UOAs on TDIClub and BITOG. The factory fill was additive depleted at 5400 miles. The Fuchs 507.00 in the next fill was good for 7-7500 miles. It might have gone longer, but I changed it out in advance of a long trip. Bottom line is that preliminary evidence is that the 507 oils are inadequate for extended OCIs in the 3.0L motor.
