Full throttle romps are easier each day if you know when or where. You can tell the difference between an “easy” vs “spirited” life motor (with all things being equal on getting up to operating temp and doing mileage based maintenance as spec’d in manual). Trust me on that. 75mph is nothing for the 2.0l. You scanguage will indicate on a flat plain 3-4psi at most sustained.
I’d do 4500-5000k changes with a bog standard 15w-40. That way you’re not killing your pocket nor the motor. Any of the big 4 oils will do fine. No way would I push to 9k with a shear like that. You’d be high 20 weight potentially.
Check TDi club and post there. Many run reports on the 2.0CR (2009-2014). They may have tips for you. But asking others without the same motor and oil will be tough.
