I use Castrol Edge 5W-40; works just fine
Rotella T6 5W40
Glad to be of help helmyv5. In one message, I mentioned I'd try a more expensive oil next time. I've now been running Castrol EDGE FST-Ti for the last two oil change intervals. Normally, oils are very hard to tell apart from one another (Like how the engine sounds, gas mileage, other \"seat of the pants\" stuff) But, this time I can definitely spot one difference, which is noticeably less sludge in the PCV system than with the Helix Ultra.
I run Rotella T6 5w-40 full syn Heavy duty Diesel engine oil in all my small engines with good results. Scooter, ATV, lawn mower, Honda car, and my F350.
Castrol Edge Professional 0W-20 seems to be the VAG recommended oil for their 508.00 requirements. Everything I’ve read about the 0w oil has been positive as it holds up extremely well in cold weather and severe heat.
I buy the Castrol Edge OE 5w30 that DAP sells and change the oil preemptively, always with VW brand filters. Has all the VW certs necessary, is what VW uses, and doesn't break the bank.
RotellaT and Wix. Since my first turbo in 2007.
at 30K and third oil change @ 10K, my oil analysis went to the waste oil furnace, it said the oil was perfect. First change @10K was Castrol 0W40, last two were Mobil 1 0W40.
I used Rotella T6 in my old Subaru. It solved the oil consumption issue that boxer engine had. Seems like most people on NASIOC run T6. So if your car burns oil, it's worth a shot.
I've used it in my Z06, Suburban, my wife's Ford Edge Ecoboost and my old Gixxer and R6.
It's a good oil and cost effective.
It's synthetic, has decent additives and won't hurt anything in any of your vehicles.
