Engine oil Shell or OEM Volkswagen

using a heavier oil weight has been an old trick to help with oil consumption in Subarus for a long time now. I used to use Rotella 5w40 (before the reformulation) in my old 04 Baja Turbo and that particular oil was the best to keep the oil burning down.

My regular since i think 2014 or so has been helix ultra 5w40 running in all my vehicles currently.

I run 0w30 in my F82 M4 as that's what BMW and Shell recommend.

I am using 15W40 Shell Oil for the last 8 years. No issues. 160k Kms on the Odometer

Had a 2.0 Diesel Tiguan, same model as you. No oil consimption at all over 80.000 km.

I have always used shell 10w-40 and did regular oil changes around 4-4.5k. Faced no issues what so ever, engine was still healthy, no oil consumption, almost same performance.

I run rotella T6 5w-40. Have for 120k miles and will for the next 120k

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 )

Ho una Golf 7 1.4 TSI 122CV del 2014 quindi con motore EA211. Ha all'attivo 157000km, da quando ho fatto 140000 km devo rabboccare 1l di olio ogni 2700km.
