Engine oil Eneos or OEM Volkswagen

OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

I've been using these docs for a while now, and am incredibly grateful for you sharing them. With that said, I just noticed something that's news to me. Both the \"Revised Oil Capacity Job Aid\" and the 2012 vs 2013 fluid capacity charts show a 1 qt decrease in engine oil capacity between 2012 and 2013 MY. I've always heard there were insignificant, minor changes between the model years. I've been putting 5ish into my 2012 and it's always been full according to the dipstick.

Pros: grateful for sharing them
Cons: 1 qt decrease in capacity

Given that it's almost guaranteed that this was not a turbo engine originally (the lack of factory air filter is another clue) she'll run hotter than usual and so a quality oil is a good investment.

Pros: quality oil is a good investment
Cons: run hotter than usual

I've owned this car for a year and stuck alot of money into it and love it but have to part cause i just ordered a RHD rx-7 from japan so i need to make room in the garage and i have to part with my VW its sad but i hope i find a good owner. INFO: 46,000 miles ENEOS oil is good for 22,000 miles they say but i still changed it every 5,000 miles. i also used it in the transmission and i felt a difference just from the oil and will use it now in every car i own.

Pros: felt a difference
Mileage: 46000 km

We had 50700 VW spec oil in for 4,000 miles on the oil and 4,700 miles on the engine. The iron wear rate was about 15 ppm/1000 miles. The Longlife III oil did have impressive viscosity holding charictaristics. I did not care for the way the oil film of the 50700 wetted surfaces, it fisheyed on plastics.

Pros: impressive viscosity holding
Cons: oil film fisheyed
Mileage: 4000 km
