Nice! Thanks for heads up. That’s a great deal so I’ll get a case. Just waffling over dumping the Motul Sport 5-40 I just put in or hold off until summer before switching to the M1

Anyone got a better place to go than Walmart for M1 5-50? This seems to be best price with free ship...

ok thanks. Yes, I had some back and forth with him 6 months ago or so where he recommended their Super Car engine oil. If it wasn't almost 2x the price of the M1 5-50 for 6 qts I would give it a go, but without some sort of sale I'll probably do the M1.

you think it's concerning enough to do shorter OCI to see where it stands? Mine are usually short anyway, but let this last one go a bit longer at 3.7K vs all the others at 3k OCI

Thanks for the feedback. Yes except for my first UOA where I had Castrol 0-40 I've been running Motul Sport. My previous UOAs with respective mileage are detailed below. I went to the bigger turbo set up about 800 or so miles into the Castrol 0-40 UOA For this most recent oil change I put in...

ethanol breaks down ester based oils more quickly?

Understood. I did a search on some of the FB mk7 related forums for others that did Blackstone reports and it seems like a high % had aluminum higher than the Blackstone reported Universal Averages. What ever the case I'll continue as I usually do and hammer it. I'm well prepared for any...

Stage 3 2016 VW Golf R with aftermarket hybrid EQT Vortex Turbo. Full bolt on's, etc running ethanol blends (E40) and full E85 Car makes quite a bit more power than stock... dyno'd @ 510whp/466wtq STD Corrected. 3.7K UOA - 55% Motul Sport 5W50 & 45% Motul Sport 5W40

Just seeing this now as I just received my most recent UOA back and was posting it. As I know @TiGeo can attest to my car set up is a dime a dozen on these mk7/7.5 Golf R and GTIs (i.e hybrid turbo, E85 tune+upgraded fueling, etc) There are loads and loads of people with many more miles than I...

Went a bit longer than typical 3K OCI and went 3.7k miles on this UOA 55% Motul Sport 5-50/45% Motul Sport 5-40 No changes on engine/tune/fueling front since last time. Ran E40 tune about 50% of time and E85 tune 50% Unless motor pops and I build the engine I don't anticipate any more real...

Here's another 2.0 EA888 ('16 S3) that has had a fair # of UOAs. As far as I can tell this car is stock but not sure. Looks to be mainly in the 20's on iron and one UOA over 30. One single digit UOA UOA #1-#5 ->...

Sorry not 100% tracking. Are you saying for a 2L the iron is still high or will be higher based on my usage?

halfway there...I had a full jug of 5-40 Motul Sport and a little less than 3 qts of Motul Sport 5-50 so I ended up doing a 50/50 blend on this most recent fill. I'd really love to do it but for the cost to do so probably wouldn't be a good long term move for my marriage. It certainly solves...

It definitely gets after it. Suspension is pretty well sorted as well, so it's a lot of fun hammering the twisties here in CO. So on the DSG and Haldex I'm cutting intervals in half. I bought the car at 30k did the Haldex right away and then did DSG 5k later @ 35k. Factory intervals are every...

I know. Concerned a bit to, but with that said, my intent is to build the engine at some point anyway and get a full frame turbo. That or DAZA swap it!

Stage 3 2016 VW Golf R with aftermarket hybrid EQT Vortex Turbo. Full bolt on's, etc running ethanol blends (E30-E40) and full E85 Car makes quite a bit more power than stock... dyno'd @ 510whp/466wtq STD Corrected. Stock Golf Rs dyno ~260whp-270whp neighborhood Short 3K OCI at recommendation...

Another 3k UOA. This time Motul Sport 5-40 Big change to car since last UOA was to add MPI (Multi Port Injection) to be able to run full E85 and higher ethanol blends than the stock DI which I could only run up to about E30 safely. I added the MPI about 1200 miles after the last oil change so...

Nice! Right on par with that CLA45 based on C/D's results on a '20 (which appears to be same engine as '22)...3.7s 0-60 and 12.2s 1/4

You have some Dragy times on yours?
