Why you need to use 504/507 oils in FSI/TSI/TDI engines!

4200 ok for Tdi PD?

TDI is 4200 only.

Petrol engines can run 4100, or 4200.

Nice find might have to get some for b/w services

That's bloody trade price for it!

I guess they're using it as a loss-leader, hoping you'll buy the oil filter they've put 200% mark-up on

Haha, I didn't even look that far..

Guys, just a heads-up for anyone who is thinking of ordering from the above mentioned website. It seems like the seller's website is not really secure. Last week, I bought liquimoly oil from them and checked out using PayPal. Today, I received a genuine looking email from "PaVpal" requesting me to log on and complete a form as my account was accessed from Singapore which was not true. If you click on the link it takes you to pavpal and not the real PayPal website. Just be careful.

Hi gabbaking,

I run Automotive Superstore could you please email us on contact@automotivesuperstore.com.au or PM me your order number so we can look into the matter.

It's very likely that it was just a coincidence, if you could also send me the email i can get Paypal to investigate.

Thanks!

Also forward the email to spoof@paypal.com.au

Either is fine in a TSI.

I've just got my car back from its 120,000km service, and was surprised to see the oil type changed from Liqui Moly 5w30 TOP TEC 4200 to Liqui Moly 10w60 GT1, because "its starting to get a few kilometers on it now" and have been running Stage 2 for most of its life.
Is it just me or is that extremely thick oil to be using. This car gets no track time at all.

Either is fine in a TSI.

Though it seems the 504/507 is preferred??
