OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

I bought a 153K kilometer 81 1.6 GTI and drove it for work to military bases all over Germany. With no restrictions I ran 160-190 kph as much as possible for a few hours at a time. It always used a little oil but I kept it changed with 20W50 dino oil and sold it at 280K still running fine.

Pros: still running fine
Cons: used a little oil
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 153000 km

Use better oil and change every 5k My Audi S6 would go through a quart every 5k That's when I change the oil -- Mobile 1 --extended 15k oil - Ive put 90k miles on it in the past 10 years it still runs strong!

Pros: runs strong, extended oil

I use mobile 1 0w40. I've thought about switching to liquid moly but everytime I see a comparison between the two mobile 1 outperforms.

Pros: outperforms liquid moly

about 4 weeks ago i did a 10w 30 mobil 1 synthetic oil change in my obd1 vr6 mk2. i find with this i can hear more of what is going on under the hood and may b i'm getting parranoid over normal noises that are just amplified b/c of the intake everything coming from the motor seems louder. lifters i'm assuming esspecially when motor is cold. but oddly there is also a weird \"diesel\" sound...pinging?...around 3200 rpm.. Nothing before or after once motor is warm i notice it as well during coasting deceleration.

Pros: can hear more
Cons: weird diesel sound
