2012 Touareg TDI - Which oil would you use?

[53' Stude]

Another one, I know. The details:

My 2012 Touareg TDI (3.0 CATA V6) will cross 130,000 miles tomorrow and I'm doing an oil and filter change. I have been doing oil only every 5k and oil + filter every 10k.

I have a Mann 8001x ready to go but also several choices of oil. On hand, I have:

Carquest 5W-40 dexos2
Carquest 5W-40 HDEO CK-4
Rotella T6 0W-40 CK-4

The dexos2 oil is probably the most suitable, but I don't really see the harm in running an HDEO. This engine consumes no oil and has no leaks or other mechanical problems.

I’d choose either one of the CarQuest 5w40 since you have tons of it

Checked my cam deviations again today. Measured -1.8 to -2.5 degrees.

So no concerns there.
