Hi all, 

 

Hit the 15 mark on my skoda 2023 2.0 tdi, and taking it in tomorrow for the oil change and filters. 

 

Leaning towards bringing my own oil and watching the change, questions are is that necessary, and more importantly, what oil to go for? 

 

Liqui molly seems to get recommended, is it the right direction to go in or is something else in now? Also, on liqui oil finder, it shows 0W-20 as recommended for this car, but I thought it was 5W-30 ?

 

Any advice is welcome. 

 

Thanks 

Welcome.

Sorry but you thought wrong as it is 0w 20 FS IV.    VW 508 00 / 509 00.     

 

You could use 0w 30 FS III or 0w 30 FS III so VW504 00 / 507 00 But that is not the recommended oil now Fixed or Variable servicing.

 

?

Is the person doing the job OK with you supplying the oil and any issues it is down to you, not them?

Thanks for the info. 

It is the skoda main service, however, eastern Europe, you are better off bringing your own for a variety of conspiracy reasons !! 

 

Its the first 15k service, guessing its variable as the car is only 4 months old. 

Do you have any recommendations as to a good oil, even if its the VW One?

 

Thanks for replying. 

Already tested Motul Specific and Liqui Moly Top Tec 6200 ... both of them fully recommended.

Thanks !!
