I'm asking this question for my friend who just purchased a 2004 VW Beetle that is in need of an oil change. Upon looking through the owners manual it says the 2.0L 8V engine that is in the car needs a high quality synthetic oil and 5w-40 is recommended and if not available 5w-30. The oil should be...
VW 502 00, VW 500 00, VW501 00
ACEA A2 or ACEA A3

What name brand synthetic oil should my friend use in his Veedub?
Thanks
