Not an OE replacement: more protection at high temperature
This oil does not match the manufacturer's original specification for this engine. Thicker when hot, it keeps a stronger oil film when the engine works hard: track driving, sustained spirited driving, hot weather or a modified engine. For normal use, our kit with the original-spec oil is the right choice.

Why it matters
Not an OEM-spec replacement: greater protection at high temperatures. The oil in this kit, a VW 502 00 5W-40, does not meet the manufacturer's specified standard for this engine. More viscous at high temperatures than a 30-grade oil, it maintains a thicker oil film when the engine is working hard: track driving, sustained spirited driving, hot weather or a modified engine. For normal use, a kit with the manufacturer-specified VW 504 00 oil is the right choice.
Oil is the lifeblood of the engine. In the 2.5 TFSI five-cylinder engine, it protects moving parts from wear, dissipates heat, especially from the turbocharger, and holds combustion residues in suspension. Over time and mileage, it loses these properties.
The filter traps wear particles and impurities to prevent them from circulating through the engine. On this engine, it is a cartridge filter: only the filter element and its seal are replaced, while the housing remains in place. A new filter at every oil change keeps fresh oil clean for longer.
