I recently bought a used '97 A4 1.8t (64k miles)
As everyone knows this beast needs some serious care. About 700mi ago, I changed the oil /filter with exxon superflo 5w30 and a bottle of ARX.
Wondering if it's beneficial for me to stick with a 5w30 dino oil for the rinse phase, or switch to mobil 1 0w40 and extend/double the rinse mileage? I'm worried about engine wear over the winter - as well as dino oil holding up in the engine in general. I'm in the northeast.
Thanks!
