I think you will find out Castrol EDGE® Euro Car 5W-40 A3/B4 Full Synthetic is a better all around oil then and oil I’ve owned Volkswagen all my life and that’s all I’ve ever run in my vehicles never had a problem and if you want to run the 10,000 miles between oil changes this oil will handle it

Pros: handles 10,000 mile changes
Cons: none
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 10000 km

Castrol Engine oil

I use Castrol GTX full-synthetic 10W-40, as I live in Texas where the average temperature is hotter than the rest of the US and oil weather varies drastically. During the summer, I've considered bumping up to 15w-40 due to how hot my startup temps are on a "cold start".

Pros: full-synthetic, good lubrication
Cons: expensive, needs frequent changes

I’ve always used castrol edge on my old cars, and the oil comes out cleaner every time I do an oil change. That’s been my experience

Pros: oil comes out cleaner

Rotella T-Syn is a great oil but for our turbos...i wouldn't recommend it since if any oil gets burnt or makes it way through the rings...the higher amount of ZDDP (zinc) found in the Shell Rotella Synthetic oil will be harmful to your catalytic converter which may cause a failure.

Pros: great oil
Cons: harmful to catalytic converter
