Yeah...same reason I switched. I love Amsoil...and so do my engines trannies and diffs. It just gets too expensive using the Amsoil engine oil with the oil change frequencies that I use ( Every 8,000KM ).
Rotella T6 here. I was a long time Amsoil guy, but it's just too fracking expensive, especially with the amount of miles I drive a week.
Those engines do burn oil. Clogged PCV would be the first to eliminate. Go w/a HD 5w-40 like Rotella.
Try the Rotella 10w-30 T5. Thin oil may work better to free things up.
I always run rotella 15w-40 in my mk3 2.0 8v. No complaints and its cheap
I just did the 4th oil change (first non-dealer change) on our 40k mile Tiguan TSI and used Rotella T6. I use it in my stage 2 WRX and think it's fantastic, so why not in the TSI. Great oil overall.
I run the T6 in my 2.0T FSI.
Rotella T6 5w-40 is a great Diesel full synthetic.
Another vote for the Shell Rotella 15w-40. I run it year round in my Rabbit.
I use Shell Rotella 15W40. It is C grade oil specifically for diesel engines.
