    Depends on what engine you have, the base 2.0L is fine with any good quality 5W-30, the 1.8 T (the turbo) engine MUST use a synthetic oil. Because of the extra heat generated by the turbo the engine is sludge pronewith conventional mineral oil, VW specifies only synthetic oil. Mobil 1 is 5W-30 is a good choice.
