OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

I've added only one quart of oil to all the VWs I have owned over the past 35 years. I check the oil every 3 months, and get the oil and filter changed annually. I don't think that modern engines consume oil, at least, not for the first 100K miles of their life.

Pros: minimal oil consumption
Mileage: 160934 km

OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

After 6 months of ownership, I have not lost any oil/ needed to add any oil. My MK7 1.8 TSI Golf SportWagen was the same way. Never needed to add a drop between the 10k mile oil changes. Not complaining at all. Quite the contrary. Just hit 6000 miles and the oil still looks new. I was originally planning on 5k mile oil changes but decided 7500 miles makes more sense for me at least.

Pros: oil still looks new
Mileage: 6000 km

LIQUI MOLY Engine oil

I use 5w40 liquimoly. No leaks and everything was fine. I changed the oil about 2000km ago and checked tonight to see it very low at the fill line.

Pros: no leaks, everything fine
Cons: oil very low
Mileage: 2000 km

My Mk4 Golf is at 146000. And I've religiously changed oil and filter every 4000. One time I let this synthetic oil go for 9000 miles, it caused pre-ignition and destroyed 2 sparkplugs, needed a tow, and a expensive sparkplug replace at VW.

Cons: caused pre-ignition, destroyed sparkplugs
Mileage: 146000 km
