I'm at 365,000 km and switched to Shell Rotella T6 probably 30-40k ago. Oil consumption was at last halved - the detergents in that oil really help clean up deposits in the rings, or so I'm told.
Quality synthetic oils provide the lowest oil temps, longest running life and superior lubrication. I use Shell Rotella T5 10W-40 for Texas climate.
Been running Fuchs 5W40 lately, N52 with 130k kms
I've used T6 in my MK4 BEW for 5 years now. Regular changes, no issues at all, and at 1/3, the cost of 'suggested' brand.
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.
Personally I rock she’ll rotella 15w40 in the summer and 5w40 in the winter to aid in cold starting. Seems to work pretty good
Shell helix has been fine for me
As long as you’re not mixing fuel with it you’ll be fine. All of my stuff runs on basic and cheap T4 Rotella 15w-40. Have never had a single issue
Rotella T6 full synthetic, zero problems, never let me down.
Rotella t6 never let me down cannot get it so Schaeffer's it is. As long as you change it you're good. Schaeffer's has a 5w40 which I like because I see thirty below in the winters
