No, but I did keep 2 quarts of oil and a gallon jug of water. My Mazda Protege was notorious for burning oil and overheating

Pros: kept oil and water
Cons: burning oil, overheating
Vehicle: Mazda Protege

Change the oil at a minimum, and do it regularly. Use a quality synthetic high mileage oil and change it again in a couple thousand miles, then change on regular 5k mile intervals.

Pros: quality synthetic oil
Vehicle: Mazda 6

I have run 0w20 in my 2013 Mazda 3 skyactiv for 244,000 miles. It doesn't burn or leak any oil between changes. I change the oil and filters every 5-6,000 miles.

Pros: no burning or leaking
Vehicle: Mazda 3
Mileage: 244000 km

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

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
