Rating 5.0

Currently using it on the 16V. So far it has quieted down the top end valve chatter. Also it has stopped the Oil Evaporation issue I had.

Pros: quieted valve chatter, stopped oil evaporation

Castrol Engine oil

I'm using Castrol Syntec Euro formula which is a 0-30 oil. I've been doing oil analysis with every oil change since I got the car. This change was a short interval with just 1400 miles on the oil between changes. Right in the middle was a track day where I did about 130 miles on track, six 20 minute sessions. I think I was seeing peak oil temps in the 240s with very quick recovery back down below 220 during cooldown.

Pros: quick recovery during cooldown
Cons: peak oil temps in 240s
Vehicle: Audi TT RS
Mileage: 2253 km

Mobil Engine oil

I run Mobil 1 5w30 and still change it every 5k. I could probably bump it up to 7500 or 10k but don't because I do it myself, and it isn't a huge cost or inconvenience to do it early.

Pros: easy to do early
Mileage: 5000 km
