Pros: zero problems, long life

Vehicle: Volkswagen Jetta

Mileage: 178000 km

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.

Pros: important as the oil

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.

Pros: 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.

Pros: works great

I've only ever used mann, I'm sure they both work! I'm going to stick with what I know is perfect though.
