Oil filter Hengst or Castrol
Oil service has been done every 5K since then using Liqui Moly Molygen Full Synthetic 5W-40 and Hengst filters.
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 5000 km
My E550 gets M1 0W40 every 5k, with a new fleece Hengst filter. I don't drive it hard until I see past 80C on the water temp (I don't have an oil temp gauge- only the E63s do). Basically the same procedure I use on my S54 BMWs, and every performance car I've ever owned
Pros: new fleece filter, part of care regimen
I do the oil every 5k on both and use liquid moly 5w40 and a hengst filter.
Mileage: 5000 km
I use Liqui Moly Leichtlauf and Hengst filters from FCP Euro on my 1.8T Passat. Highly recommend.
Pros: highly recommend
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Castrol Edge 0w 20 with the Dexos1 and an STP gold filter done at 2k.
Pros: using Castrol Edge
Mileage: 2000 km
7500 miles religiously, including filter every time. Full synthetic 5-30 Castrol.
Pros: religiously, full synthetic
Mileage: 12070 km
I use liqui moly but I have my doubts about whether it actually is *the best* oil. I'm sure it's good, but any oil that meets the spec called out in your owners manual is "good". I place more weight on the filter than anything else. Hengst for me, get that Fram shit outta here.
Pros: good oil, meets spec
Cons: doubts about best oil
Vehicle:
Audi
Liqui Moly Oil change 5W-40 with Hengst Filter
Vehicle:
BMW
I buy Castrol edge and Mazda oil filter off Amazon.
since vw started using the synthetic material i am very fond of using oem. ive never seen the synthetic material deteriorate or crush in the housing between oil changes. ive also seen the plastic on those types of hengst filters break apart and that scares me to use.
Pros: synthetic material, does not deteriorate
Cons: plastic breaks apart
