Rating 4.0

I once used the 20k mile oil, but changed it at 12k; my engine seemed to run nore smoothly, after that. I swore off longer oil change intervals and went back to regular Mobil 1.

Pros: engine ran more smoothly
Mileage: 12000 km

This is a late response but I just saw your post and it's exactly what happened to me when I took my 2018 GSW 1.8 TSI 4Mo in for the 20k mi service. They filled it with 508 00 0W-20. I didn't catch it until much later and I changed the oil myself at 27k mi with Mobil 1 502 00 VW approved 0W-40 oil.

Pros: VW approved oil
Cons: incorrect oil used
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 27000 km

I did my own oil/filter change at 27k mi with Mobil One European Formula 0W-40, since I'm a little uneasy about 10k intervals in So Ca stop and go traffic and 100+ F heat.

Pros: better oil change intervals
Cons: uneasy about intervals
Mileage: 43452 km

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.

Pros: used in many TDIs
Cons: high wear metals
Vehicle: Volkswagen
