What's the best type of oil to keep in the trunk to top up my 1.8T?

Thanks!

M1 0w-40 meets all specs and is easy to find.

Go Motul 6000 on your next change and you wont regret it !

I was at the autozone the other day and remembered to look for that syntec and all i could find was the US stuff BUT I have a question. I saw some stuff that said 5w-50 on it and it came with a large tamper proof top on the quart containers. What is it? You have any info on it. It looked new and didnt make mention of any VW specs at all but in mentioned B3, B4. I just figured they havent gotten it certified yet. Is that stuff any good? Thanks. Cheers! Mike

In a turbo, I would not even use Mobil 1 15w-50, but Syntec 5w-50 would be a great choice. My mechanic's car is an UrS6 with 24lbs boost. He has that full competition licence too, so he has a lot of experience on-track. So, maybe a new formula. I don't see it being GF-4 and I know it was A3, so I'd say hit it if you are interested.<ul><li><a href="http://theoildrop.server101.com/cgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=005119">http://theoildrop.server101.com/cgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=005119</a</li></ul>

Always call ahead, but wal-mart and autozone are usually good.
