Engine oil Mobil or OEM Volkswagen

Yooo this happened to me, have you used a high mileage type of oil? Apparently when they start to burn up they can change to a reddish hue, I went back to normal Mobil 1 and it’s back to gold

I’m team mobil 1, 160k and going strong.

Mobil 1 5w30 and oem Subaru filter. I change mine pretty religiously at 3750 miles. I know it might be overkill but I’d rather be safe than sorry and if my engine blows up I will for sure know it wasn’t my fault for neglecting maintenance.

Extractor all the way. As for The amount left behind, it is inconsequential if you are maintaining a short oil change interval. I've seen a couple YouTube videos showing maybe 3 or 4 oz left behind.

I use an oil extractor on our 2016 Tiguan, my 2016 A4, and 2023 Arteon. All have done a great job and make an oil change an absolute breeze.

Anything Dexos2, my fiancé worked at a chev dealer and I was getting their bulk 5w30 dexos2 at cost and my LSPI issues went away, mobil1 ESP went in last oil change at 250k km

I've been using Mobil1 in my car for three years because the garage I worked at had a contract with their local distributor, and that's what I got at a steep discount. Last year I put Total's equivalent oil in it, absolutely no discernible diffrence between the two.

I run 5w30 Mobil 1 ESP with a Mann filter every 10k kms on my 7.5R. Got a great deal on it when it was on sale. It meets VW ratings, and I feel like that is really what is important.

Honda oil is overpriced and mid. Mobil1 is just mid. Neither are good regardless of the kind of consumer you are.

I just go to crappy Grease Monkey and do full synthetic Mobil 1 for like $100.00. Then I drive home, and double check their work.
