What oil weight do I need to use in my VW 2.0T FSI GTI?
On most VW models, including the MK5 GTI, oil weight (for example, 5W-40) is usually less important than oil specification. Volkswagen has specific oil specs that must be met for the oil to be considered valid. This spec can vary (check your owner’s manual for details), but it’s commonly VW 502 00 for the 2.0T FSI. Using the correct spec helps keep your engine running properly and may be important for warranty coverage or warranty extensions.
All oils found in the kits below meet the required specification.
