Engine oil Mobil or PETRONAS

If I could change the oil myself I would do it every 5k using the cheapest 507.00 spec oil I can find. But I can’t so I do it every 10k and use Mobil1 ESP.

As long as it states VW502 on the back, you should be fine.

I used to live in Chicago, and had cut over to Mobil1 0W40 based on feedback from a very respected resource who worked for Porsche. For context, his recommendation was grounded in enabling my engine to better handle the harsh Chicago winter temps.

To be frank, I'm not sure if it made a huge difference but then again I do not have a chemical or petroleum engineering degree.

I drove my VW to 200k miles without any issues.

Petronas Syntium 5w 30 on a mercedes and audi a6. No complaints at all, and good price

You can also try changing your oil to M1 15w50 full synthetic that helped me with my cold start rattling issues and the engine seems to run smoother along with the vanos idle clacking noises going away.

Personally I use mobile 1 extended performance and change every 5k but I’m a bit of an oil critic

Tengo un Vento 2.0 TSI gen3 que cuando lo compré usaba Elaion F50 sintético 10w40 y lo consumía. Cambié a Mobil 1 FS 0w40 y no consume más...

I used to do Motorcraft 5w20 but I ended up switching to Mobil 1. It just performed better in the car and made the engine run smoother and quieter.

Our engines were originally designed for 5W30, so that's what I use. Namely Mobil 1 High Mileage.

I have a 22 Tiguan and did the first oil change myself around 5K miles. This is what I ended up using. I found it locally so that was a plus, Mobil 1™ ESP X2 0W-20 .

So, again, I bought a new one and threw it on just last night. I took it for a ride to get it warmed up and I'm still having low oil pressure.
