I used that exact oil with a Mann filter on my 2013 Jetta SE for every oil change. Just sold it a couple months ago with 178k miles on it with 0 serious problems the 10 years I owned it
Also, the filter is just as important as the oil, use an OEM filter or a Mann Filter and use a new drain plug while you're at it.
Use mann Mahle or hengst filters.
I use liqui moly but I have my doubts about whether it actually is *the best* oil. I'm sure it's good, but any oil that meets the spec called out in your owners manual is "good". I place more weight on the filter than anything else. Hengst for me, get that Fram shit outta here.
This time I'm using Mannol fully synthetic and a Mann filter, and as I need 8 litres of oil, it makes sense financially as it's very reasonably priced.
I have an oil extractor that cost me $75 and it works great. Give it a few Pumps and let it do the job. For a 2.0t I’d get liqui moly with a Mann filter all for about $45.
I've only ever used mann, I'm sure they both work! I'm going to stick with what I know is perfect though.
Lol - there is a torque spec on the factory oil caps now 32mm socket @ 25Nm is all it needs. And yes I use my torque wrench every time on it I Only use Mann or OEM filters from the dealership. Not had a collapse.
I buy two 5L jugs and a MANN filter from FCP euro and use their lifetime warranty.
I've only ever used Mann filters and I still consistently get the oil pressure light. I suspect the last time I got an oil change the shop used 5w30 instead of 5w40 because it's been worse than ever for the last 6 months.
