Engine oil MOTUL or OEM Volkswagen

I used Motul 300v 15w50 for my track days at Circuit de Catalunya, Circuit de Calafat and Circuit de Castelloli because of the extreme heat.

Motul eco-lite 0w/20 bought on ebay in bulk is cheap and it’s a 100% synthetic oil (better than full synthetics). Just posted an oil analysis report from blackstone labs. It’s a very good oil.

I've been using motuls hybrid oil that's specifically for hybrid cars on my gen 3 prius. Gave me +2mpg onto of what I do and "nicer" ride

Motul testing came back and it’s pretty impressive. Definitely gives Valvoline max life a run for its money.

If you want the best oil money can buy, read up on synthetic bases and high temperature shear strength. Oil is cheap, engines aren't, so ponying up for a tier 4 or 5 base oil like Motul, Amsoil or Redline makes sense.

I bought a 153K kilometer 81 1.6 GTI and drove it for work to military bases all over Germany. With no restrictions I ran 160-190 kph as much as possible for a few hours at a time. It always used a little oil but I kept it changed with 20W50 dino oil and sold it at 280K still running fine.

ive been using motul offroad 800 (full synthetic) at 50:1 or 40:1, depending on how i feel like mixing it. been working great for me
