Engine oil Castrol or ZIC

Castrol Engine oil

As someone who lives in Florida, and has a high mileage m54 motor, I only use Castrol 5w40 and 5w30 if I cant find the first option. Runs amazing and daily driven with some abuse lol

Pros: runs amazing

The 2020 has been great but the engine still clacked and groan albeit nowhere near the 19. With the 0.5 quart of Castrol 5W50 I love the car now! Pickup is great and the engine being pettier seems to help the transmission shift better also.

Pros: quieter engine, great pickup

I use edge 5w40, I switched from 5w30 and oil consumption has went way down and it feels like the engine runs smoother.

Pros: engine runs smoother
Cons: high oil consumption

And one thing I would definitely do is get the Castrol out of there if you intend to keep the car long-term. The recent changes to the oil we are delivered at the dealer is crazy!!! It's not the same as it used to be and I can tell a huge difference in my cars. Have had excess oil consumption, lower MPG and quicker deterioration of the oil over last 6 months using Castrol(and I work at dealer)

Pros: lower MPG
Cons: excess oil consumption
Vehicle: Volkswagen
