My last Oil change was using 5w-30 conventional oil. Which is much different than the 5w-20 Syn that VW uses.

When I dumped my dealer Syntec 5w-40 for M1 0w-30 in Dec, it was night-and-day. Way lighter and better.

Pros: lighter and better

Cons: 5w-40 is very thick

Just changed my oil in my '02 Camaro. It has the LS1 and just rolled over 150,000 miles. I use Mobil 1: 5w-30. It hasn't seen anything other than Mobil 1 so that's what I use haha.

Vehicle: Chevrolet Camaro

Mileage: 150000 km

Mobil 1 extended performance 5w-30. I don't drive many miles and I want the extra life of the oil in months. Plus Mobil 1 is factory fill on my LS2.

Pros: extra life of oil

I love the Mobil 1 ESP 5w30 for normal duty. It meets the latest 504.00/507.00 VW standards (newer than 502/505), and is specifically designed for diesel motors. Turbos are tough on oil, and diesel oils take prolonged periods of high heat much better.

Pros: high heat resistance, meets VW standards

Pros: great performance, good viscosity

I use Mobil 1 full synthetic(type 4)20w50 in the summer and 10w40 in the winter(we range on temps here widely, hence the change in oil viscosity by the season).
