I have a 2023 Civic Si.

I did every oil change at around 8k miles which is when my maintenance minder popped up, even though the dealer recommended every 5k. No issues ever, now at 46k miles.

Pros: no issues ever
Vehicle: Honda Civic
Mileage: 8000 km

OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

If you are using VW original oil then stick to it and the service interval. 15 years 229,000km later mine is going strong. I did mess up by doing service at 15k km all these years. Sticking to 12k is best. Instead try iftex system D. Makes a very noticeable difference. More important I feel is changing the air filter more often. And compulsorily changing diesel filter every year.

Pros: stick to service interval, air filter change often, diesel filter change yearly
Cons: mess up by doing service at 15k km
Vehicle: Volkswagen Polo

One must change the oil by 8.5k kms, due to constant thermo heat cycle, its addictive pack gets broken down, oil gets dirty.

Pros: oil change by 8.5k kms
Cons: addictive pack broken down, oil gets dirty

OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

as long as it meets the VW 508 00/509 00 specification, it'll be fine which I think is 0w-20 and I \\*think\\* 5w-20

don't go beyond that, while it \\*may\\* not fuck the engine up, those 1.4Ts are REALLY picky (I had one in my Jetta Hybrid and anything past 5w-20 and she was angry )

Pros: meets VW specification
Cons: engine is picky

I dont know about the newer 1.5t in the crv's, but im getting rid of mine because of the oil dilution issue. Sent out an oil sample and it came back with 8.2% dilution on oil that had 2k miles on it with 0 idle time. All the technical service bulletins have been done and \"nothing\" is wrong with the car.

Cons: oil dilution issue
Vehicle: Honda
Mileage: 3218 km
