Castrol Edge Extended Performance 0W-20. Haven’t had to change the oil yet but I will around 7500 miles for peace of mind.
After tuning. Castrol edge 5w40 and 6 months or 5k.
Figure the changes are cheap insurance.
I use mobile 1 0w40. I've thought about switching to liquid moly but everytime I see a comparison between the two mobile 1 outperforms.
I’ve always used mobil1 on my cars.
Mobil 1. It’s amsoil without the outrageous cost.
Always Mobil1
In the desert, I use [Castrol Euro 5W-40] - it's easy to find everywhere and pretty cheap. It's technically only an API SN, but the actual test results seem to indicate it exceeds SN+ requirements in most every metric that matters
M44 1.9, Mobil 1 Super 10W40, though I have to admit I use Castrol Edge in everything usually.
I really like Mobil 1 0w40 European car formula, and for the filter, only OEM from the dealer.
Yes, you can certainly use 506.01 in your TDI and it's used in many TDIs around the world. However, based upon some of the UOAs offered up, I'd suggest moving to 507.00. The 506.01 has shown relatively high wear metals.
