Just updating! I used to put Castrol Magnatec 5w40 on that Golf, and the engine just improved from day one. Much smoother and with greater response to throttle, and the engine start got like 2 seconds faster, almost instantaneous.

Pros: much smoother, greater response

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

I used to use Mobile1 in my vehicles but switched to castrol edge only becuase mobile1 didn't have very good flow rates at startup in colder climates (like Michigan) as castrol had. Plus it's recommend for asian vehicles and I drive Nissan and Mazda.

Pros: better flow rates at startup

Cons: Mobile1 not good flow

Vehicle: Nissan
