For my '07 VW Eos 2 liter turbo engine, please tell me which y'all think would be best, 0W-40 Mobile 1 or Syntec 5W-40. It requires a 502 oil. I drive about 8,000 miles a year and am now changing oil every 6 months. TIA

If all is same I'd pick M1 but if I can find Syntec at a decent price I don't hesitate buying that one either. With a reasonable OCI both will do fine but M1 has the edge in longer OCIs.

They both meet VW 502 and 505. M1 also meets 503.01.
