My '03 jetta tdi just turned 84000, I have used the rotella synthetic 5-40 the whole time. I change it about every 7,000. I'm in the northeast. Last year it got down to 10 or 15 below quite a few times. It sounds like someone shaking a buckets of marbles when I first start it, but it smothhs right out and allways starts. Rotela is ok by me.

Pros: always starts, ok by me
Cons: shaking sound at start
Mileage: 84000 km

Shell Engine oil

Lately, I've been using the Rotella Synthetic 0w40 which is available at Canadian Tire. It conforms to the required specifications for the non-PD engines.

Pros: conforms to required specifications

Another option is the Shell Rotella T synthetic 5w40. It's not a PAO base stock. But it's $13 a gallon, for cheaper oil changes.

Pros: cheaper oil changes
