    MK4 GTI 1.8 AGU Service

    Hi guys,
    Just picked up a neat little one owner 1999 mk4 gti here in Tas, has complete dealer service history but is due for an oil and filer change. Plan on getting a genuine oil filter from the dealer and on the oil side of things (yes I've looked around old threads here) it's looing like this oil might be a good choice for my gti, thoughts?
