I started doing this routinely with every oil change. Only have a tiny 1.2tsi VW though, but the difference afterwards is noticeable. Especially in terms of rate of oil consumption. These tend to clog their rings it seems.

And an electronic fuel pump.
I usually run 5-40 euro blend by valvoline from Walmart. $27 for 5 quart jug and you cannot beat that price. Walmart has the best oil prices of any auto part store.
At around 4000km I did a break in oil change and switched over to liquimoly and noticed my oil regularly stays at 90-95C and only goes to 104 if driven hard.
Every other oil change I run a bottle of liqui molly diesel purge when I replace the fuel filter. Most reliable car I've ever had.
I have a 2015 golf tdi and have had good luck with Mobil 1 ESP.
For stock suspension and even lowered 15mm on coilovers, I have really enjoyed my DWS06+ 235/45/18’s. They ride great, handle better than any all season tire I’ve ever run, and have smashed some serious potholes on the rare occasion that I can’t avoid them.
Mine came with 19” Montevideo which have been turned into dedicated winter setup, I upgraded to 20’s. The ride isn’t horrible tbh but it is worse, but you will for ever have that feeling of butthole pucker up lol every time you slightly even see a pothole.
On my stage 2 mk7 I swapped around and tried a few like ngk and the ngk failed causing misfires like crazy on acceleration. Back to OEM and never had another issue for 45k miles.
Replacing a motor is not fun, nor cheap. That was with 9006 RS7's btw (your current plugs).
