Engine oil Castrol or MOTUL
As someone who lives in Florida, and has a high mileage m54 motor, I only use Castrol 5w40 and 5w30 if I cant find the first option. Runs amazing and daily driven with some abuse lol
Go to wallmart and buy two jugs of Castrol Edge Full Synthetic 5W-30 and then just purchase a couple filters off of FCP Euro.
Well after the second oil change in the dealer I decided to look a external place to change my VN oil but I just bring everything and since then I use Motul 5w-30, no issues so far, a bit expensive but I dont care.
Motul 5100 because it makes the gearshift feel nice.
I have only used Motul oil in my car since it’s first oil change. Motul 5w-30 in mine as it’s boosted and only driven in the summer.
I’d just stick with Motul, typically you pay for what you get.
Motul 7100 is good but quite expensive. I had good experiences with it. Not sure if its just me but it seemed like it holds heat better? My temp gauge always seems to hold steady at three bars when not stopping and my N400 feels smoother for shift changes.
The 2020 has been great but the engine still clacked and groan albeit nowhere near the 19. With the 0.5 quart of Castrol 5W50 I love the car now! Pickup is great and the engine being pettier seems to help the transmission shift better also.
I use edge 5w40, I switched from 5w30 and oil consumption has went way down and it feels like the engine runs smoother.
have used Castrol 5w-40 as VW calls for and change at 5000 mile intervals. Now at 129K, it still uses one or two quarts between changes and performs as well or better than new.
