Castrol Edge 5w 30.
I get mine from a site sponsor on here Opie Oils. Always had first class service.

I have Octavia Vrs Stage 1 and running Castro Sport Edge 0W40. £32 for 4 litres in Halfords.
£40.99 normally but with 20% off at moment. Also same deal on 5W30.

I'd personally stick to a Vag Spec oil, especially if you are still under warranty.
I change it at every 3k too.

Opie Oils recommended I use a 5W-40 synthetic. Then gave me a choice...........
.....'The best ones are the Fuchs/Silkolene Pro S, Millers CFS, Motul 300V, Redline and Gulf Competition. The Motul 8100 X-Cess, Millers XFS, Fuchs Supersyn, Shell Helix and Mobil Super 3000 are good, cheaper alternatives'

You still under manufacturers warranty Leroy?
If the worst was to happen, they may not pay out if the wrong oil was used.
Any reasons given for their recommendation?
Not under manufacturers warranty and they didn't give any reason for their recommendation

It's upto you then mate, which way you going to choose?
I'd of liked to of heard the reason.
Don't know what to do
I only started the thread because the service guy asked what oil I wanted to use as my car is modified. I would of just gone with the normal oil that used on our cars.
