Castrol Syntec 5W-30, because of this: [https://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-drivetrain/258663-vq-oil-analysis-and-info.html](https://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-drivetrain/258663-vq-oil-analysis-and-info.html)

Between it and the Castrol Syntec 0W-30 it has less wear indicators in the oil than any other brand, at any other weight.

Pros: less wear indicators

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.

Pros: performs better than new

Cons: uses one or two quarts

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat

Mileage: 8047 km

Part number: 5W40
