I've used only 5w30 full synthetic (usually Mobil 1, sometimes others) since I bought mine 15 years ago (D15B7). Using the high-mileage variety nowadays, supposed to help out the old seals etc. Just over 150k miles but engine runs very smooth so seems to be doing the trick.
I use Mobil 1 synthetic blend HIGH MILAGE 5w-30. I think the high milage formula is the best for these old engines.
My G37x likes mobil 0w 30 car feels great with this oil
Been using Mobil1 5W-30 since 1998... GTI now has 232,500 miles and is smooth as silk. I do oil changes on the dot at 5K miles.
The part number they listed for each quart of oil was G-E55-540-1B-DSP . Look that up and you'll see why oil changes are expensive. Somehow I don't think the oil is better than the Mobil1 I buy at Walmart at $24 for 5 quarts.....
Mobil1 should be fine. People are anal about oil but I've got 90k on my wrx with regular oil changes every 3-4k miles with Pennzoil ultra platinum or Mobil1 Extended Performance.
Edge Professional 508 is excellent, however, I have to agree with @VWmechatronic , the Mobil 1 sourced stuff is top notch. Almost 5K on mine and level on dipstick has not moved.
I use Mobil ESP VW507.00 5w30, which is on the approved oil list and I buy for $30 when it goes on sale at Canadian Tire.
I put Mobil 1 4 Stroke Synthetic into my Ninja 250. Honestly, any reputable brand 10W-40 oil will do if you change it routinely.
I'm currently happy with Mobil 1, 15w50, except when it comes time to pay for it, yikes that stuff is pricey. First time I ran the Mobil 1, guess what happened?? Oil light flicker at hot idle. Replaced the low pressure switch, no more flicker. That switch didn't change characteristics just because I changed oil, the fresh oil was thinner, oil pressure decreased.
