Not really . My tuner (jackal motorsports) recommends Rowe RS synthetic oil . Currently using LM molygen , it's ok but apparentlyThe RS is the best stuff

Pros: high quality oil
Cons: just ok

OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

This one was done at the local VW dealership where they added 6L of VW oil and were nice enough to collect a sample of the oil for me to send off to Blackstone. The oil in this sample had higher quantities of wear metals present vs the 3rd sample, but that is to be expected as there were more than twice as many miles on the oil.

Pros: stellar report at 12,228
Cons: higher wear metals
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 12228 km

OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

I did first oil change on Atlas at 5k then did 10k changes, but the 3.6 is lethargic compared to the GTI which I have been doing about every 4k miles.

Pros: regular oil changes
Cons: 3.6 is lethargic
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 8046 km

This is not fine. VW oils like 502, 504, 508 and 511 are not typical oils. They have a different additive package and the viscosity is different, like the extended performance 5w30 is not the same viscosity as a 504 5w30. The 504 is thicker and is closer to a 40w.

Pros: different additive package
Cons: viscosity is different
