Re: 1.8T Oil issue -- cost
On a side note, I just changed the oil on a 2001 Passat with the V6 engine.
That oil filter states 2 years on it.
Now if you could drive, here in the USA, for 2 years or 24K-30K miles that
would save you quite a bit of $$$.
I know I know different engines and different requirements. <g>

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way,
when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them, and you have their
shoes. Frieda Norris

I saw this in another forum, and I found it useful in deciphering all the
oil gibberish:
Volkswagen Group Oil Specifications and their Applications
VW 500.00
This is an “old” oil specification and is applicable to engines built before
model year 2000 (up to August 1999)

This oil can be used in all petrol and some diesel engines, apart from those
referred to under other specifications.
VW 501.01
This is another “old” oil specification with exactly the same application as
VW 500.00.
Viscosity ratings: SAE 10w-40, 15w-40 or 20w-40

This oil can only be used in petrol engines and is recommended for those
which are subject to arduous conditions. It must not be used for any engines
with variable service intervals or any which are referred to under other
specifications.
Viscosity ratings: SAE 0w-40, 5w-40 or 10w-40
VW 503.00
This is a relatively new oil specification for petrol engines with variable
service intervals. It includes the AUDI S4, but not the RS4, or the TT and
S3 with outputs of more than 180bhp.
Viscosity rating: SAE 0w-30
VW 503.01
A new oil specification specifically for the RS4, and the TT and S3 with
outputs of more than 180bhp, Passat W8 and Phaeton W12.

Interestingly, this is the oil specified for the RS6 - definitely not a
diesel engine!
