Funny that you would say not to use M1 0W40. It is one of the few VW/Audi approved oils available in the US. Of course it shears. Everyone knows it shears, I am sure that Mobil knows it shears too. So what, it meets many german mfgs specs, so it must be a pretty good oil.
While the wear numbers are high, they are not scary high. This car was serviced by the dealer, and I bet they probably skipped an oil change or two, or maybe put dino in it a few times. Plus, it has gone 10k between oil changes for its entire life. Im just going to change it in 5k and get another UOA then.
It has M1 0W40 in it now.
