I use Valvoline XLIII and it works great and not terribly expensive.
I've been using Valvoline #VV966 VW502-approved full synthetic 5W40 MST on our Audi and the GSW. Works well, no issues.
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
I run Valvoline simply because when I got my Civic people recommended it. Hasn't given me any troubles yet even in my Miata.
For my Ford I use motorcraft because it's oem.
For my high mileage Honda I've been experimenting with how the oil "looks" after a change. I know it's not technical but the valvoline oil seems to hold up well.
I've used Mobil1 many times but my last oil change I decided to use Valvoline 5W-40 MST SynPower which is actually on the list as a 502.00 oil.
Valvoline full synthetic 0W-20 changed every 5k, oil filters I prefer oem but recently it’s been whatever is on sale at advanced auto
Fuchs Silkolene. Good stuff.
Just changed oil today (same oil as above) at 104,728 miles. Purrs like a kitten.
Valvoline Synpower 5W40 I've been running this (VW 502.00 approved) in our '07 Audi 2.0TSI for over 100K mlies, 10K oil changes, and no issues.
