Engine oil MOTUL or FUCHS

I just changed the oil in my MK7 GTI (around 300hp) with MOTUL X-cess (5w40) and my god did it ever make a difference!

Use semi synthetic 10w30 replace at 3k kms. As for oil I try different brands from motul, gulf to fanfaro.

Think the last oil change I did was with Motul 7-series (fully synthetic) 10w40 because central Italy gets HOT

I've recently switched to Motul because the Castrol pouring spouts seem to have gone away and Motul's also become more available.

I've put whatever motul 10w40 semi I can get cheapest into my blackbird every 10k miles for the last 140k and it's fine.

In Florida, I use Motul 300v 5w30 for track days and tuning. Otherwise I run motul 8100 (5w30) if I know i'm not going to drive the car hard for awhile. I change the oil pretty regularly because it's a simple insurance. Always send the oil into blackstone to test.

Take it from someone who's owned a gen1 since new. Motul300v full stop is the good shit. 200% worth the cost.

motul 5100 here in thailand is recommended.

4100 turbo light? It isn't JASO MA specified for motorcycles and wet clutches. No damage from oil. Probably just rough gear changing and maybe rough on the clutch plates but you should be fine.

I use the Motul 8100 5w30 normally , just recently tried the 5w40 but I’m about to change it back.

Car feels slugish with the thicker oil.

I don’t like that ????????‍♂️
