The Ecodes are also awesome, really lights up the road at night.

I ran my 2K beetle for 21K miles on Amsoil 5-3o/5w-40 and milage went up 7% and started awsome when it was 0 degrees out . Now I have a 2005 Jetta and its next for the 5w-40 @ 5K oil change .
There was a considerable difference when I installed my new NGK plugs. My engine revved up easier and the fuel efficiency increased.
use M1 0w-40 in my girls Beetle S. works like a charm. currently i'm using AMSOIL 5w-40. going to switch to M1 0w-40 after this.
i use 5w30 in mine and it runs great. really quiet.
i use 0w-40 on my vr6 with 80K miles. runs fine
for vw's; i prefer using the 50/50 coolant from the dealer my gf's 2.0 had a small leak for months and we just kept on topping it off with the pepboys stuff-- but once i replaced the thermostat housing you can see corrosion in the hoses and the old housing -the coolant from vw is quite different than aftermarket brands (you can really tell just from its thickness-- i suggest forking the dough over for the vw stuff -other cars; i don't know
on both my current 1.8T VW'S i use Valvoline Synpower 5w-40 Full synthetic- it's an oil that is approved by VW...and has all the right cleaners/additives in it.
My all-season tires however, and worn for the path. They are still drivable, but I will definitely be replacing tires before winter.
I have been using FRAM filters all this time, and the problem has re-developed.
