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.

Pros: less sludge in PCV

Castrol Engine oil

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.

Pros: holds up well

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.

Pros: has all VW certs, doesn't break the bank

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.

Pros: solved oil consumption issue
Vehicle: Subaru

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.

Pros: good oil, cost effective
Vehicle: Chevrolet
