Plenty Sccobs here in SA and the UK use Motul 300V...mostly the 10w-40 and 15w-50...with your winter temps you can consider the 0w-20 or 5w-30. Never hear one modder or customer complain about issues using this lube and plenty are pushing 300+ KW at the wheels.

Point 2 is where it is supposed to be. If it is at point 1 it is overfill by 700ml...which is a lot in my view. If this is the TFSI motor with the filter unit at the bottow (new TSI have the filter at the top) then I would just take the pan cover off and push the drain nossel (orange unit) and...

Motul: http://www.motul-canada.com/en/products/...00_5W30_TDS.pdf I see Castrol dont have the warning... http://www.opieoils.co.uk/pdfs/castrol/EDGE%20Range/EDGE%205W-30.pdf Very interesting to note that Castrol claim this oil fights valve deposits on the FSI motor...this it the first time I...

Thanks that makes me feel better. As for the warning, I see Motul Specific 504/507 also has the warning to avoid mixing.

Hi all, I have a 2.0l TFSI motor in my car and I run Motul 300v 5w-40 in it. I needed a small topup(100ml) today and I mistakenly poured in some Liqui-Moly 4200 (VW504/507 spec) in (it was in a Motul 300v bottle..yes I hear it that wasn't the brightest idea ). Now the big question...will this...

I bought some of this oil (SLX Pro 0w-40)for my 130i BMW and found the following specs from Castrol UK where it says it comes from (on the bottle). TBN looks ok. I also got some 0w-30 SLX Pro. Test Method(s) Unit Typical Relative Density 15°C ASTM D4052 g/ml .841 Appearance Visual clear and...

Saaber1, clearly you are offended to behave in such a puerile manner. Thus you have my unbridled apology for any offence I may have caused you; I hope you could assist me to understand this better as you did for Gay Allan. Anyway more to the point: Yes that was for the TSI motor which operates...

This is the description for the TSI motor...much the same principle. Sounds like I was 100% correct. Page 25... http://www.arinahnell.com/other/vw/tech/20tsi.pdf

First I hear of this one: Mobil SHC Formula V

Yes yes, I was refering to the original setup.... Anyway you are detracting from the important part which is the gas outlet at the back...the one you have blocked up...before you have to mention that again. By blocking that you are preventing the crankcase from being put under vacume when the...

Hi Saaber1, That is the diagram I was refering to, thanks. I think we are actually saying similar things, just one corretion on what you said.The PCV unit has two valves in it, when there is boost (read pressure in the intake manifold) the PCV acts like a one way valve and stops any flow into...

This is an interesting solution. My only concern is that you block out the pipe venting to the turbo intake (behind the motor). This would prevent the venting of PCV gasses under boost since the PCV valve unit channels it that way when under load and under no load it opens and channels the...

Ok, thanks everyone for your replies, even though it all went off track at one point. Much appreciated. I normally let my cars go closed loop before heading off at an easy pace until at operating temp. Tx
