Engine oil RED LINE or Motorcraft

I run Redline 5w-40. I do not use the 'Euro' formula version, but the regular 5w-40 meets the VAG oil specs for a (2012) TT-RS. I used to run Mobile 1 0w-40, but I believe that Redline, Amsoil, Motul, and a few others are a higher quality oil (ex: Ester base stocks for Redline and Motul 300v).

Hi Vr6oom, I have a 2015 S3 with 10.3k miles and also trying to reduce IVD and oil consumption as much as possible. After a bunch of research that I have done to find the lowest possible noack, saps for 5w40, which is the viscosity recommended. I have settled for redline 5w40 euro series, just got my UOA back from Blackstone after 5k miles and everything is looking fine for extended oil use. So far little to no oil consumption

The only one that I found that met my standards was redline 5w40 euro series. I have just got my uoa from blackstone and everything looks fine, so for 5k miles on it and no oil has be added.

I switched to Redline 5w-40 at my last oil change, just barely into my second round of it now. So far so good.

If you're looking for high moly content, I like Redline oil. Google it, there's tons to read on Bob is the Oil Guy alone. That, as well as Motul, have been great in my 2.0T which is pretty hard on oil.

found some FORD Super Duty Diesel oil 15w40.....seems to work pretty well! ford aka motorcraft

X2 on the Redline. I use this and i'm very happy with it.

They also have a race blend for better protection.

With Red Line you really have to look beyond the grade on the bottle. They will always recommend the thinnest kinematic viscosity oil because they have such a high HTHS.

ive always used motorcraft diesel oil. 10w30 in the winter and 15w40 in the summer.
