Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or VALVOLINE

Going to use what I use on all my VW's - Liqui Moly Good quality and Amazon has some great prices.

Valvoline SynPower Full Synthetic 5W-40, VW502 approved. I use it in our '07 A4 (over 100K miles) and plan to use it in our '16 GSW.

5W-30 Valvoline SynPower (full synthetic) and Mahle filter since I picked this car up at 89k in '11. Just cleared 175k last week.

I used castrol edge 502 spec , although Iwatched pauls from DAP video and he specs Liqui Moly, which seems like a high quality german oil.

I use Synthoil 5w-40 seems great. Lower consumption early on till about 4K miles then on par with consumption others report.

I think what helped as much is the valvoline oil. Valvoline really agrees with my motor. Not sure why I have trouble with some of the other blends, but it's really quiet with the ashland add-pack.

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

Valvoline VR1 non synthetic. It is one of the ZDDP oils. Reasonably priced and the Z seems to like it.

[Valvoline SynPower](http://www.valvoline.com/products/brands/synpower/full-synthetic-motor-oil/5) is what I have run since I purchased my 2012 Subaru Legacy.

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.
