All engine faults/repairs/maintenance Oils recommended

General

This new page (in progress) will provide a few pointers on suitable oils to use. Not everyone agees, some preferring monogrades, some cheap multigrade, and others, Fantabidosa premium brands but one thing we do all agree on is no matter what oil you use - change it regularly. Regular oil changes and keeping the oil topped up matter far more than how much you actually spend on it. The VW engine isn't doing the high revolutions of most modern performance-orientated cars so will run quite happily on a budget brand (within reason) providing you change it regularly.
