Engine oil MOTUL or FUCHS

i have run 300v in my engine since 2005 when it was first built no seal issues

I run Motul in both my 8 valves, 5w40 year round, it's awesome stuff.

Switch to Motul and hear the difference.

I don't know what all you others guys are doing but I run 5w40 full synthetic Motul. Best stuff... the people who said they seem to burn oil should try 5w40 synthetic, many people have shown improvements with it. I run it to 10,000 kms or 6K miles and the stuff still looks good.

I used to use Esther based Motul products and have nothing but good things to say. I've since switched to Lubro Moly since it's easier to get locally and is cheaper.

oil consumption is way down since i've been using 300v.. and the smell isn't bubble gum.. it's burnt popcorn

Been running 300V in all my cars including my GTI Best oil ever IMHO You'll notice a power difference when you switch form Castrol to 300V

it was really good. no oil consumption problems and car just felt a niice smooth power delivery the whole time i had the motul running. I also had minimal wear on my cam follower which is a big prob for people with upgraded fuel pumps on fsi's, although i have no idea if this could be related.

Yea I've used 5w40 syntec as well but seems like the dealerships in Canada are starting to use 5w30 and that I know for certain burns faster on my car. I'm not sure why the dealerships in Canada swapped over to 5w30 now but I always get Motul now. Although a bit more pricey, i intend to keep the car a long time

I also have a 2006 2.0T Jetta and I have similar oil consumption rates. Try changing the brand of oil you use. I know the dealerships use Castrol Syntec. To me, it seems as if they're not as "durable". I swapped over to ELF for a while and that helped, and now I'm using Motul and this seems to be the best. I think my car burns around 1-2 qts every 5000kms.
