Since started using Liqui Molly (2 years and about 8k ago) fuel consumption improved by at least 2/3rds and the oil consumption slowed down not to mention top end is much quieter.
Eh if it’s VW approved then it’s fine. I just use Castrol Euro or Valvoline Euro and haven’t had any issues.
I run 5w30 Mobil 1 ESP with a Mann filter every 10k kms on my 7.5R. Got a great deal on it when it was on sale. It meets VW ratings, and I feel like that is really what is important.
At 1st I was running 0w-20, that's what is recommended from manufacturer. That being said i run High Mileage 5w30 in my car. Have been for the last 3 oil changes.
I am using Liqui Moly now, but was using Valvoline/Mobil 1.
Got my car at 36k miles, and used the Valvoline/Mobil 1 up to ~300k miles and no major issues…
Liquimoly Leichtlauf (Hight Tech) exceeds factory standards, and is designed for VW engines. I’ve been running it for years in our Tiguan with a Mann oil filter. It’s a great oil, our 13’ tiggy runs great and is the only oil I would ever run in an old TSI motor.
Make sure you stick to the VW 502/504 ratings. I've been using LM leichtlauf in my 2018 sportwagen for years and its been great.
I'm using Motul 300V, the engine is so damm smooth. It's so smooth and I got bored. But at higher speed it's excellent.
id put 17 at the okay point but any lower is not good - well my subaru would do about 18-17psi at idle so im sure alls fine
I installed an oil cooler on my buddy's 370z and he dumped in oil and a full bottle of this and I just scratched my head
