Engine oil Mobil or Pentosin

technically you can use Mobil 1 Euro Formula 0w40 in the GTI and the Phaeton because it has the VW502.00 certification.

I was able to document that the oil was VW 502 certified Mobil 1 0W-40.

I do my changes @10k with UOA. 2nd change was with 4 laps on the Nurburgring and about 1500 miles @125 MPH. At 10k The report came back that everything was fine and the oil still had life in it. With my K04 it came back fine also. I drive the piss out of my car.

Yeap, running it in my 2.0 8v rright now. Will switch to M1 10w-30 or 10w-40 this summer, back to T6 in winter. Got 206K miles on the car.

Just stick with Mobil 1 0w-40. It's VW-approved and covers just about all operating conditions. There's a reason it's factory-fill on Porsches and Mercedes AMG vehicles

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.

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.

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.

I ran Mobil 1 or German Castrol synth in my BMW (inline 6), and run Castrol GTX in my v8 truck.
