Motul E-Tech 0W-40 in my 06 Jetta 2.5?

I was wondering what the consensus was in using Motul's 0W-40 E-Tech in my 2.5L motor in my Jetta?

I just started using it in my VW W8. So far so good. It's VW 502, 503.01, and 505 approved.

brian, didn't you used to have a Passat 1.8T? What happened to it? Sludge victim?

No, I use to have a 05 GLI 1.8T, but I got tired of the ** having associated with that car. So, I traded it in on an 06 Jetta Package #2 and what a difference. They are not kidding about it being a "new" Jetta! So, I know I have to use a 502 approved oil and I wanted a high quality oil, so I chose Motul E-Tech 0W-40. It's the only Grp V oil that is 502 approved anyway.
