Shell Engine oil

Rotella t6 never let me down cannot get it so Schaeffer's it is. As long as you change it you're good. Schaeffer's has a 5w40 which I like because I see thirty below in the winters

Pros: never let me down
Cons: cannot get it

Shell Engine oil

Rotella T6 15w40 is like franks hot sauce, I run that shit in literally everything. Civic, VW tdi, cummins, generator, even my KTM 450 dirtbike. I’ve owned the bike since new and for a very high performance engine at 120 hard hours it looked nearly brand new, I’ve never seen an oil perform like that.

Pros: high performance, engine looked new
Cons: hard to get now
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Shell Engine oil

I would recommended shell ultra 15w50 . KV100 is 20 which is thick as fuck and won't shear down quickly. Mogul 7100 is thin and will shear down to 40 grade and internationally considered garbage oil. Shell is made of group 3+ base oil so its going to perform better.

Pros: performs better
Cons: shears down quickly

OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

Well, just got back the test results on for our oil analysis, here are the comments: " Nothing showed up in this sample that's too much of a surprise, though aluminum and copper are perhaps a little higher than expected. New parts wearing in tend to leave a lot of metal in the oil and that's what we suspect is going on here. You ran this oil pretty long for factory oil (we realize you were probably only following the oil life monitor). So that's why aluminum and copper are on the high side. No matter--everything should improve now that you've changed this fill. The TBN read 1.9, getting low but still okay. Potassium is from the EGR system. "

Pros: TBN still okay
Cons: aluminum and copper high
Mileage: 9979 km
