Hello everyone. I did a little experiment on my CAYC. It has stage 1 with useless k&n filter, egr off and dpf on for about 50 000km without any problem.

Well 10 000km ago I decide to put LKW engine oil, to be specific it is MAN oil 5W-30 3677. Service interval on truck is 90 000km so why not to try.

So it doesn't drink it at all, I didn't notice any difference in power, dpf regeneration is normal, look at the oil! What you guys think about that? What is your opinion about using that oil? (Don't worry I am changing oil every 12k) 😂

Why would it drink oil?

You used the correct oil for a TDI & a Fixed Service Regime or Long Life, Variable / Flexible servicing.

Just it is supposed to be to the VW 504 00 / 507 00, so 5w 30 FS III.

Well I used to put Aral but it fast starts to smell burned, MAN oil on the other hand doesn't smell like that so I'll stick to that for now to see what will happen in the future

MAN is VAG…..probably came from the same refinery.
