Engine oil Mobil or RAVENOL

‘15 here and I use Mobil 1 0w40 euro spec or whatever it is.

I change mine about every 4500 miles or so and I use Mobil 1 oil. Manufacturers love to point out how little it costs to maintain their vehicles but changing your oil every 10k will ensure you’ll be replacing your vehicle sooner than later and that benefits the dealership.

Stopped buying the dealer oil and switched to Mobil one esp x2, stopped asking for more oil between 5k changes.

I’m from saudi and the owner’s manual recommends 0w20 or 5w30, never mentioned 0w16 despite that the engine is the same (A25A-FKS). Im using mobil 5w30 btw

I use 5w30 ESP Mobil 1, has the 507 grade spec and gets on sale at Canadian tire pretty frequently

I have a 2015 golf tdi and have had good luck with Mobil 1 ESP.

I used to run 0W40 in Lexus IS250 (4GR-FSE engine) with great results, towards the end of it's life (maybe... the car was stolen at around 200k miles, so not sure when it actually died) it was burning little bit of oil when 5W30 was used. However, I have noticed that when I changed for 0W40, it has not burn any oil at all and oil was noticeably cleaner.

As long as the oil is VW 502 00 spec, it’s fine to use. I always go with either Mobil 0W-40 or 5W-40.

My wife drove her 2008 Passat 2 miles per day for six years. As you can imagine, during these very short drives in winter, the oil became diluted - this was born from sever UOAs. So, I changed the oil every 1,500 miles and the oil and filter every 3,000 miles. Over-kill perhaps but based upon my personal expectations, worth the time and money. We used Mobil 1 0W40....which sheared to a 0W30 fairly quickly and stabilized.

Mobil one didnt go well with me as i was burning oil really fast it and my engine wasn't feeling it I tend to use different brands also as i recently tried royal purple
