What Oil weight do I need to use in my VW 2.0t TSI GTI?
On most VW models, including the MK5 GTI, Oil weight (ie 5W40) is not as important as oil spec. VW has specific oil spec requirments that must be met to be a valid oil. This spec varies (see your owners manual for detail) but is generally VW502.00. This is required to keep your engine running properly, but more importantly to maintain the warranty, or potentially warranty extensions that might exist.
All oils found in the Kits below meet the required spec.
