Engine oil Kendall or MOTUL

I run X-Cess 5w-40, seems great. Takes a little longer to heat up than 5w-30 but I imagine you’d want the high thermal stability it offers in your location.

Motul has been phenomenal for me

Only used Motul 300V 5w30 or 5w40 since I bought the car new in 2009. Today I'm on 178k kilometers and still on the first chain and chain tensioner. No rattle, no oil consumption or what so ever.

I use Motul the best IMHO

I use Motul 300v 5w40. I also drift so depending on what you’re doing it could be overkill. Before I just used Royal Purple 5w30 or Castrol full synthetic 5w30.

Motul 8100 stopped all oil burning issues I had in my Subaru Turbo. Mobile 1 would just burn off and I had to constantly add oil

I changed my engine oil at 5k km on my own because the bike felt shit to drive, heating up too much + shitty mileage, my guess is that RE uses an improper grade or bad quality oil, i used the motul 10w50 fully synthetic oil, it's an immediate and huge improvement, mileage, heating, smoothness, clutch, everything improved, and I'm not even exaggerating.

Would be better to use a quality full synthetic instead. Motul 7100 is very popular but there are other options. I'm thinking about giving the Shell/Ducati oil a try.

I bought a new air filter for carb. I reinstalled the front engine pan. I did an oil change. VW specialist recommended I go to Kendall 20w50 to fix the oil light at idle.

I used Motul with ester. 15W-50 I think? It was for a 16’ Continental GT. Seemed to work fine.
