504/507 or 508/509 for 1.4 TSI Leon

[cmberry20]

I'm about to get some oil (for an oil service) for my 2016 1.4 TSI FR (150bhp) Leon. I've noticed that 508/509 0W-20 VW grade oil is available at the same price as the standard 504/507 5W-30.
Is this grade any better and is ok to use?

Cheers

I'd stick with the recommended 5w-30 to the correct 504/507 specification. I see no reason to use a thinner oil on a part-worn engine

Cheers Matt. I'm going to stick to the 504/507 as this seems to be what everyone is using. I can't find anything official that 508/509 replaces 504/507 but some places (I'm looking at you Euro Car Parts) seem to recommend it.
