Engine oil VALVOLINE or OEM Audi

Valvoline MaxLife 10W40. Made specifically for older engines with high mileage.

I just did the restore and protect on my 2015 and let me tell you that it has made a massive improvement. Immediately the engine runs quieter and smoother and after 500km it’s like my engine has much more power.

I think that as a general rule you want a motorcycle specific oil in your primary because of specific additives in it for a wet motorcycle clutch. Just don't use a super slick oil like the Valvoline VR1 Racing blue sapphire stuff.

I recommend valvoline syn power mst C3 for Renault diesel engines with dpf filter. Low saps oil which will produce less carbon in your engine. I have 110hp version of 1.5dci and use this oil for last 6 years. Never had a problem and oil consumption is minimal

Valvoline is really good and proves it on tests. Available at any auto parts store... currently running it in a westinghouse 2550dfc

I run Valvoline VR1 20W-50. I believe during cooler seasons you can run a thinner (less viscous) oil.

I use Valvoline R&P 0w-20 and my engine sounds healthy. so does my mom’s Velar. I think whats more important is using the correct viscosity and changing it on time.

Valvoline restore and protect oil or shell rotella t6 oil....

The t6 diesel oil has all the detergents you need to maybe clean out the rings. (And meet the more stringent european standards).

5-30 Valvoline restore & protect is working wonders on my 2.5. Visibly cleaning out deposits and engine running stronger

I just found this thread. I have a 2014 Jetta 1.8t with 107k that I bought for my daughter two years ago and it burns through a quart of oil about every month. It dropped cyinder 1 similar to what the other person experienced, but new plugs and ignition coils solved the problem.
