i use amsoil 5w30 love it
Hey I've got 145K miles all but the first 5K on Shell Rotella T from Walmart. I go 10 to 12K between changes and I'm running Big injectors with the IQ dialed up. No Probs...
My '03 jetta tdi just turned 84000, I have used the rotella synthetic 5-40 the whole time. I change it about every 7,000. I'm in the northeast. Last year it got down to 10 or 15 below quite a few times. It sounds like someone shaking a buckets of marbles when I first start it, but it smothhs right out and allways starts. Rotela is ok by me.
I ran my 2K beetle for 21K miles on Amsoil 5-3o/5w-40 and milage went up 7% and started awsome when it was 0 degrees out . Now I have a 2005 Jetta and its next for the 5w-40 @ 5K oil change .
AMSOIL is definately the best oil to buy, but its expensive and hard to find (unless you order it - amsoil.com).
i just did my first oil change with amsoil 5-40 European blend. i heard stories about mobil1 burning oil more than other synthetics.
AMSOIL oil and filter. I swear the butt-dyno gave me a few ponies after switching from Mobil.
Lately, I've been using the Rotella Synthetic 0w40 which is available at Canadian Tire. It conforms to the required specifications for the non-PD engines.
I have 148k km of entusiastic driving w/Amsoil 5w30 Series 3000. The Ontario distributor actually rates this better than the Euro formula so I will keep using it.
Canadian Tire sells Shell Rotella SB full synthetic. Great for our TDI's....
