Rating 4.0

140K '19 Tigi 2.0T, switched from Valvoline 5W20 Syn to Mobil 1 0W20 ESP (Dexos D). Changed oil due to oil consumption and secondary air injection DTC. The "latest" member of the Mobil 1 family touts lower emissions (less vapor in the PCV system).

Pros: lower emissions, less vapor
Cons: oil consumption, air injection DTC
Mileage: 140000 km

Rating 5.0

Mobil1. Period. Years of personal experience. When I was in my 20's twenty years ago I was using Motul too because everyone else was and I didnt know any better. Try them out. Detergents, how clean the oil remains after each oil change and how smooth it runs were some deciding factors for me.

Pros: clean oil, smooth run

  • Exhaust smoke:
Rating 4.0

My 14' outback burned 1-2qts between oil changes based on driving (lots of short trips or visits to the mountains burned more.) Never had any blue smoke on startup or during driving.

Down to .5-1 qt low after 5000 miles now.

Pros: reduced oil consumption
Cons: moderate acceleration knock
Mileage: 5000 km

Lucas Engine oil

I run Lucas 5w40, it’s more about doing oil changes more often rather than anything else. VW doesn’t have any special materials in the block or heads, it’s just cast iron and aluminum no different than any other.

Pros: doing oil changes often
Vehicle: Volkswagen
