Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or OEM Volkswagen

I've changed my TDI's oil every 10K miles since it was new. It currently has 330K miles on it and runs like a watch.

Liqui-Moly produce good oil in general, in my country all subaru enthusiasts use it for engines also!

Thanks sp_golf - went with liqui moly 10w60. it may be my imagination, but the motor seems to run a little smoother and it feels more responsive - but I have no #'s to prove any of that. What I can prove is my oil temps were definitely more manageable and I didn't burn nearly as much oil as the 5w40 I was using previously.

Liqui Moly for me all the way. It's made in Germany and their standards are second to none. We use their oil in our service department and in all of our own personal and show cars as well. Their oil test results are some of the best I've seen, I highly recommend using them.

i got even better results with Liqui Moly(better results then Euro M1); a much quieter engine on a 1998 Dodge SUV V8 and a 2001 BMW with a V8.

Leichtlauf is great, I've noticed smoother overall operation in my 2.0 TSI Jetta and GTI since changing from dealer Castrol.

Run liquid moly. 5w40 at napa and its a really dependable oil

I use liquimoly 5w-40 synthetic german blend that is vw spec and I do not burn a drop of oil between changes.

The Motul stuff is pretty great, though I went with Liqui Moly Leichtlauf 5w-40. My 2.0 TSI Gen 2 really like that oil, never burned a drop and saw about +2% in fuel economy.

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.
