    I prefer VW 504/507, but do you have reasons for thinking VW 502/505 is superior for Oz use (with our short oil change intervals) ?

    Some discussion here, which also mentions old spec 502/505 vs new spec 502/505:

    You can prefer what you like but for petrol VW's the minimum spec oil IS 502/505

    Bob the oil guy is in the USA so why are we even looking at his advertorials

    Also where did I say it was superior, I said it is able to be used as in SUITABLE for PETROL engines

    As per this ad Castrol EDGE Engine Oil - 5W-30, A3/B4, 5 Litre | Supercheap Auto

    In fact in my Polo manual it states that is the oil to use

    However as I also had a diesel i used Enviro + in both
