Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or ELF

Liqui Moly is good.

I only use liqui moly toptec 4200 in my 12 Jetta tdi

The 5w30 or 0w30 is perfectly fine. Since I live in the US Midwest I’m going to start just running 0w30 liqui moly year round

I use liqui moly Toptec 4100 because in India, spec for 2.0 TDI is 5W40 and we do not have DPF so VW505 oil is recommended which Toptec 4100 conforms to .

Decided it would be a good idea to change oil to Liqui Moly since the car is trying to be kept going for another 10 or more years . Main dealer was their standard 0W-30 , but i am going to 5W-30 top tech 4200 . Cars manual said its fine spec and originally had 5W-30 day one .

R60, I use liqui moly 5w-40. 0w-40 is good too. Flows better at start up. Same viscosity at operating temp.

My mechanic (Gigamot - MINI specialists) here in Germany recommended and swears by 5W40 for my R56s.

I have been using it for 3 years on all 5 MINIs.

No issues, summer or winter.

I just purchased a LR3 with the V8 4.4 and what a beast! I am close to my first oil change and I am thinking of using Liqui Moly Special Tec 5W-30. I used Liqui Moly for my previous car and it was great.

But if you want extra protection, go for the 10W40 from LiquiMolly, which cotains molibdenum dissulfide, a powerful powder type lubricant which adheres to moving parts.

The 2.0 liter gas/petrol engine is the weak link here, due mainly to poor piston ring design. We are third owners of a '14 A4 6MT, purchased in mid '17 with 48K miles. We're at 98K miles now, and with 5K engine oil changes using Liqui Moly or Elf/Total fully synthetic, we use a small nominal amount of engine oil between changes.
