Anyone else experience the same? This oil is 15.4 cst so I guess it is to be expected but I had been running redline 5w40 (15.1cst) for a long time and with that the turbo seemed to spool up faster than on the factory fill (which was a 30 weight).
There was an excellent UOA posted on Brad Penn 10w30 for the 2.0 FSI so I thought I'd try the 10w40. I'm thinking it is too thick and without the esters it is dragging the turbo.
On a positive note it did quiet the engine down compared to the last run I did which was a redline 5w30/10w40 mix.
