Hmm, anything VW approved or even 10-40 or thicker, getting high up in km's buddy.

Oil filter brand not too much of a drama, I use Ryco if I use aftermarket and they haven't let me down, although genuine wouldn't be much more if you really don't wanna risk it. Dont forget to change the sump plug / washer while your at it, nothing more annoying then when it leaks..
