Engine oil Eneos or OEM Volkswagen

I normally use Mobil 1, but did experiment with a JDM brand called ENEOS. The engine seemed to run smoother with that engine than other brands I've tried before.

Eneos oil. Japanese full synthetic. Use it on my 96 accord. Good stuff.

The oil spec for the 1.8L engine in my 2019 Golf Sportwagen S 4motion is 502.00 (5W40). After my last oil change at the dealer I questioned whether they used the correct oil because the service ticket was written up wrong. The dealer supplied these photos to show how the different grades of oil are actually different colors. The oil on my dipstick was caramel colored, so I knew it was the correct grade for my car after all.

That PN is listed as genuine Volkswagen oil for your vehicle. You’re all good!

I bought a 153K kilometer 81 1.6 GTI and drove it for work to military bases all over Germany. With no restrictions I ran 160-190 kph as much as possible for a few hours at a time. It always used a little oil but I kept it changed with 20W50 dino oil and sold it at 280K still running fine.

36k miles and still not burning a drop between 10k OCI's. I use VW 0W-20 Full Syn 508/509 spec each and every time, until mobil1 releases a Full Syn clone. Noticed a "slight" increase in MPG's with the newer oil.

Eneos 5w-30! Car runs like a dream

Super happy with the guys at PIA, and they use Eneos 5w40.

I’ve used Shaffer’s and now ENEOS and T6 when it was the in thing and I can’t really tell a huge difference.

My Mk4 Golf is at 146000. And I've religiously changed oil and filter every 4000. One time I let this synthetic oil go for 9000 miles, it caused pre-ignition and destroyed 2 sparkplugs, needed a tow, and a expensive sparkplug replace at VW.
