Price has changed in SA, and so did oil - which has now VW label and no Castrol label, also it is made in Italy now and colour is different to
Which worries me, because if the Castrol made VW506.01 oil was causing some damage to R5 engines (and VW Australia was ordered by VW Germany to start buying 506.01 oil from European market), I was planning to keep my T5 for another 5 years or more. I hope that I’m wrong about AU made 506.01 oil qualities.

Dealer in SA wanted $95 for 5L and that was trade price he told me. Almost $30 more than for Castrol LL2.
I still have enough oil for 1 oil change in my T5. If I use it or not would depend from what was the reason for change of oil manufacturer by VW Australia.
I didn't take picture of the new oil container. A new oil had VW Long Life 2 506.01 on it and no Castrol sign or logo.
