Recently acquired a 2003 VW GTi 20th Anniversary Edition with 200,000kms I know the original owner and it always used Euro 5/0W40 with OCI's every 5-8k kms It has sat in storage for 2 years and I am going to fully restore the car, replace all the maintenance items. Under the oil cap is decent...

Congrats, here is my 2001 AP1 with only 28k miles... I run M1 10W30 on the street and then M1 Euro 0W40 whenever I hit the track

i ran 0W40 FS in my 2018 3.5EB and now 2020 3.5EB.... both 5 star 91 tuned.... UOAs came up with no issues whatsoever...also little to no dilution... its a stout oil for these engines, even in stock tune

5 Star tunes are very safe. My 2018 3.5EB was tuned from new until 60000kms when i traded it in for my now current 2020 3.5EB... this one is tuned now too... im running their 91 Performance tune.... Its not only just the higher engine output but the trans tune is optimized as well... they do...

Like everyone else's post on BITOG, what's your point?

Have 5000kms on my truck. First dumped the FF at 1000kms and filled with QSUD 5W30. Didn't reset the OLM. OLM @ 65%. Would like to go with a 0Wxx oil all winter or until OLM tells me to. Also im running a 87 Performance tune from 5 star... its not very aggressive, but much better in overall...

i run 0w40 M1 in my Q50 VQ37VHR...

Thanks everyone! Update: i changed out the FF just after 2000kms to QSUD 5W30 and a week later got my tune files from 5 Star... i ran a data log so i can send it to them to confirm if sny adjustments to the tune was needed. Anyways kinda off topic, but this is how incredible their tune is...

yes very good... i ordered in March before the pandemic hit... then it arrived this month and i retained the discount i negotiated plus got zero interest rate ... got the exact truck i wanted, my discount and then zero percent... doesn't get any better

Im a fan of the M1 0W40 FS.... I use it in my Q50 3.7... however its not SN+... any concerns for LSPI?

I have that on my shelf too, however its not SN plus or newer SP... LSPI? I did run it in my tuned 2018 however switched and stayed with an SN+

I have a brand new 2020 F150 Lariat Supercrew 3.5EB. As soon as i picked her up, i leveled it with Bilstein 5100s added Fuel Blitz wheels and 285 60 20 K02s.... On all my vehicles that i buy new, i am one that likes to dump the factory fill... I do it at just over 2000kms. Have had never any...
