Engine oil PENNZOIL or Mannol
Liquimoly 4210 0w-30 or pennzoil platinum euro lx 0w-30 are the two best imo. I have heard from some other mk8 owners that Pennzoil drops engine temps by 8-20 degrees F so thats what goes in mine.
Pros: drops engine temps
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Any oil that meets the manufacturer's specification for your car will be fine. Mannoil 5W30 fully synthetic meets VW 502.00 and ebay sell 5L for about £17 - why pay more?
Pros: meets VW 502.00
Definitely better well known brands out there for cheaper prices. Look at Mannol oil. Mannol served me well.
Pros: served me well
Vehicle:
Ford Fiesta
I use Mannol. 5l of the stuff in 5w-35 retails at about £20 on eBay which is a damn good price.
Pros: damn good price
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I've always had good luck with manol oils.
Pros: good luck
As long as you get name brand oil at the weight your owner manual says you'll be good, I run penzoil in mine and she seems pretty happy with it
Pros: seems pretty happy
Finally ended up with Penzoil Plat. Can't tell a difference at all when the oil is fresh. Also engine never burned oil on Penz.
Pros: engine never burned oil
Cons: no difference when fresh
Vehicle:
Lexus IS
I have been running Pennzoil platinum euro in my 16 GTI its entire life and its now at 125,000km. I ran the same oil in my 2007 GTI before I sold it up until 190,000km. Never had a single problem, neither cars burned any oil.
Pros: no problems, no oil burning
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 125000 km
Pennzoil Platinum Euro 5W-40. It’s LL01 approved
Pros: LL01 approved
I used Pennzoil before but felt real cheap quality and used to get darker before the competitors. I moved to Mobil 1 or Castrol GTX and felt the difference in smoothness.
Pros: felt difference in smoothness
Cons: real cheap quality, darker
Vehicle:
Toyota Highlander
