Engine oil AMSOIL or ELF

I use Elf, I switched over and won't go back.

Just started using it in my '03 3.0 (90K service). Elf 0W30. Notice a substantial increase in mileage! Hate the price, though...$13.95/litre CDN! And at 6.5 litres for the change...well, you get the picture.

That's just it.... I bet his iron levels were quite high on m1, just like everyone else is seeing.... which is why I switched to Elf.

i use the Elf Excellium DID 505.01-spec 5W40 in my non pd-tdi. no problems either.

Used the rotella for the first 90,000. Switched to AMSOIL so I can change the oil half as often. I'm good with either one. The car has 146,000 and runs as strong as ever.

FWIW, I used Amsoil in my old Mk4 GTI VR6 and in my R32 with no issues.

0w-40 weight oil is great for the VR6. I've been using either Mobil 1 or AMS European Formula (5w-40) in mine since day 1. 85k miles later it still runs like a champ. AMS Euro oil is fantastic stuff, definitly worth every penny.

i used their oil before and was very happy.

I use Amsoil full synthetic 15w-40 year round in my 1.6D with over 250k miles.
