Re: factory fill oil for \'03 ti
Sorry,
all of you are wrong in one or more aspect.
I contacted Castrol, and got the response
I posted last month, and got trashed for
posting. Never one to be dissuaded by
people with bad attitudes, here is the
continuation...
This month I got my "free" first oil change
at VW. I asked to see the oil, and here is
what I wrote down.
1. Castrol "special" black plastic bottle,
with "hex" cap.
2. 5w-30 (not 0w-30, or xw-40)
3. SL/CD rated, no CF-4, CG-4, etc. diesel ratings
4. "VW 505" rating dominant on the front
5. NO EVIDENCE that this is other than a Group III
6. price, without taxes, $7.25 per quart
Sorry to provide the bad news. But maybe the
having the facts will clear up the multiple
misleading posting.
Before you trash me, go to your VW dealer,
and WRITE the label down, and compare to
what I have above.
