It works. It’s a quality oil that I use in my daily 5.0 S550. Used in my 200k mile 2.0L turbo fusion and the first oil change was so gross. Blow by has gone done a lot.
I've used it for about 25k miles in my Camry with the 2AZ-FE engine (200k miles on it), it has the known issue with the piston rings being poorly engineered and seize up from excessive oil burning. I can personally confirm it has cleaned up my pistons, I haven't taken the engine apart so can't directly see the rings but oil consumption has reduced from 1 qt per 1k miles to now 1qt per 5k miles.
It sure does work, cleaning dipsticks and reducing oil burn has been my experience on several personal cars since starting a year ago. I bought an MDX burning almost 1 quart oil / 1k at 155k, now doesn't use a half quart every 3k now at 185k.
I've been using valvooine max life for a long time and it's done me just fine.
I have been using various Valvoline synthetic oils 10+ years in multiple stationary engines, tractors, diesel and petrol engines. No sludge, no varnish inside the engines, and never worn an engine out.
I use Valvoline restore and protect. It fixed the tick after a few oil changes
Had a 2.0 Diesel Tiguan, same model as you. No oil consimption at all over 80.000 km.
5W30 Valvoline Restore and Protect is good
as long as it meets the VW 508 00/509 00 specification, it'll be fine which I think is 0w-20 and I \\*think\\* 5w-20
don't go beyond that, while it \\*may\\* not fuck the engine up, those 1.4Ts are REALLY picky (I had one in my Jetta Hybrid and anything past 5w-20 and she was angry )
Jednom sam prije vi\u0161e od 10 godina u jednom trgova\u010dkom centru kupio ulje za auto, gradacije koja je trebala za ono sme\u0107e od VW -ovog 1.4 8v benzinca... Valvoline, barem je trebalo bit po deklaraciji... i kolega mi to zamjenio, naravno i novi filter... kad nakon tjedan dana po\u010deli lupat podiza\u010di ventila...
