As long as the oil you pick meets the spec you’re after, all is well. It would be one thing if you were tracking the vehicle or tuning it, but for a factory Benz engine, 229.72 is fine, as are the others. If it were me, I’d run a good quality 30w and call it a day

Will do! Yeah, I'm not anticipating any issues either but better safe! ESP locally isn't expensive enough to not do it

Thank you guys for your replies! Picked up M1 ESP 0w30 today to replace the 0w20, which will be sent to Blackstone to see how it faired with the tune.

At the crank it reads a gain of 102 HP and 99 ft lbs torque

Hey folks, happy Sunday. Coming up on an oil change on my 2019 VW Jetta GLI and had a couple questions. Recently I had the car tuned with Integrated Engineering, on their Stage 1, High Torque tune. I also had the DSG tune done. This MY was one of the first of VW calling for 0w20 instead of a...

Happened to come across Napa’s house brand Euro 5w40 today, normally $8.99 but for whatever reason one store near me was selling it at $4.28/quart, so I bought all they had, will be changing out for it tomorrow in my Jetta. The back of the bottle says something along the lines of “Designed by...

Sorry, should have specified - Euro Gasoline application, not diesel

Alright, to get it out of the way, I know this oil isn’t approved for any Euro application outside of many some select diesels. What’s the consensus on how T6 would do in say, a VW or BMW application? My biggest reason for asking is I used to be a Subaru owner, and most Subie guys seem to...

Because I have a gift card to spend, lol

So, the gf gifted me with a gift card to ECS Tuning for our anniversary a few weeks ago, and I realized today how close I am on an oil change, so I'm planning to use it on that. There's been a couple varieties of Liqui Moly I've been wanting to try out but I'm unsure of which to pick, or what...

Found this Mobil Full Synthetic on sale at Autozone ($15 5qt, $4 singles) so I picked some up for my Taurus. What exactly is it? It’s not Mobil 1, it’s not Super, I’ve never noticed it before. Decent stuff? Thank you!

Sorry, brain no work. VW 502.00 or above

Okay, been deep down the rabbit hole of "boutique" vs normal euro oils and have compiled a list that I want to try out, as well as post UOA's after the fact. I'll post my list below, which one should I give a go first? Many of these are purposely less common. •Liqui Moly Molygen 5w40 •Liqui...

Pardon my brain not working, what is ULSG

This specifically isn't a track application, I've just seen it suggested. This car is tuned making around 80 HP above factory and does see some spirited driving, but no track

Alot of people seem to be very happy with Mobil 1 ESP over the usual Mobil 1 0w40 Euro, Castrol 5w40 Euro, etc. I know its a 504/507 Spec oil that is technically backwards compatible with 502, but my question is, is there any reason to not run it? Engines in question are all EA888 Gen 3 engines...

Thanks gentlemen. On the off chance I find a good deal on a 50w, any reason to not run it in both? Any known issues with thicker oils in those engines?

The Jetta is stock turbo, APR Stage 2 Software. The GTI is IS38, running E30
