Owner reviews for engine oil

You will not get better, check the results yourself, I gained 9hp and 6 ft lbs of tourqe and increased my gas mileage per tank 35-50 miles.

for the ow-30 im guessing your talking about german castrol. thats what im using right now and it works well

I use 20/50 Valvoline year round....

I've owned this car for a year and stuck alot of money into it and love it but have to part cause i just ordered a RHD rx-7 from japan so i need to make room in the garage and i have to part with my VW its sad but i hope i find a good owner. INFO: 46,000 miles ENEOS oil is good for 22,000 miles they say but i still changed it every 5,000 miles. i also used it in the transmission and i felt a difference just from the oil and will use it now in every car i own.

I used Mobil 0w40 in mine all the time

IMO most anything is better than Castrol!

Rotella T 5/40 syn hopefully going in this weekend after a seafoam treatment. 25 CAD for 4 litres, inexpensive as it gets up here and you can get it at any TSC or truckstop.

All of the 8100 series Motul oils are ester based. I will only run the x-cess 8100 5w40 in my GTI.

But from my experience with it, it has made a difference in several of my vehicles (not only VW).

I have been using Castrol 0W30 European Formula all year round and it offers great protection in the coldest cold and the Highest Humid Heat. I used to use Mobil One 0W40 but it seems my car likes the Castrol 0W30 better since it runs smoother and gets a tad better gas mileage.
