Engine oil Mobil or Total

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.

Mobil 1 Advanced in everything, with OEM filters... Use it in my Tucson, Mustang, Corvette, and Dodge pickup... Really, any quality full synthetic oil is fine.

Been using Mobil 1 5w-30 full synthetic since I rolled it off the lot. Zero issues. I do my own changes every 3-5k. I did swap out to the FL400s filter to make it an even 6qts.

I went back and forth between Mobile 1 and Amazon full synth for 140k miles without issue. Just change the oil every 5000-7000 miles

Funny, I changed my oil today for the first time as well. Also 1700 miles. Not black but certainly a lot darker than the Mobil One 0w40 that replaced it..

my valvetrain was always noisier when I used to run Mo1 0w40.
