Default Changing Engine Oil

I'm soon due to change the engine oil on my A3 and currently use Mobil 1 5w-30, do you guys recommend changing it to something like Motul or Red Purple?

What does everyone else use on their 2.0T ?

If you want to maintain your warranty you must use an oil that's 502.00 certified by VW. Here's a recent list of oils available in the U.S.:
