I choose this oil because it meets VW's 502.00 specification, have used it for over 140,000 miles on a 2.0 liter turbo engine making over 300 HP and have had no oil related failures. I will keep using it.
When I bought a Mercedes Roadster I knew I had to treat it right if I wanted to keep it for 500,000 miles. To me, that meant Amsoil.
I was very pleased to find that Amsoil had Synthetic European oil. When I went to the dealer for an oil change, I was surprised when the service manager told me that Amsoil was all he used in his cars.

I bought a 2007 BMW 550i used 7 years ago with 98,000 mi and it was burning about 1qt of oil every 1500 mi and smoked real bad after idling for about 5 mins. Found out the 4.8 has an issue with the valve guide seals hardening up and not keeping the oil out of the top of the cylinders. Dealer cost to replace them was from $3500-$5500. I decided to live with it until I save the money to fix it ( I really love this car). I’ve been using Amsoil for many years and have never had an oil issue with it except leaks of course. I now have 246,000 mi on it and it only burns 1 qt every 2500 ( It’s a BMW Duh )!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

All my German vehicles are running on Amsoil, and I use Motul when in Europe.
I had been running Mobil 1 in all my Mercedes but decided to try Amsoil due to loud noise coming from the top end of my wife’s 2015 Mercedes GLK350. The vehicle only had 35,000 miles on in, but sounded almost like a diesel when it started. Now the vehicle is the quietest engine I have owned with overhead camshafts. This is the 5th Benz we have owned in the last ten years and I had run Mobil one in all of them.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Great oil from AMSOIL as usual. Used on a 93 BMW, that runs quieter and smoother.
have 5 pre 2012 german vehicles currently using amsoil. have not had any oil related issues in over 10 years using amsoil.
getting delivery to my house is simple.
I plan to continue using on all my vehicles as well as other amsoil products for small engines and motorcycles
How does one review a motor oil after less than 1000 miles? I will say that the engine in my BMW 230i seems to run a little quieter, but that may just be in my head. It is certain however, that this oil meets all the specs for European turbo motors. That is a demanding task to protect that engine. I have confidence in this oil.
This oil has been great , been using it for many years in my hot natured Audi turbo cars with high demands, has performed very well and kept the top end clean (scope often)
fantastic oil,been using this since 2005 in my high performance subaru,got the rest of my family using it also so now i am a member,cant go wrong there,great prices
I contacted customer service to find out which oil I needed, and the email response was fast and accurate. I purchased the oil online and received within a few days. Used in conjunction with the engine and transmission flush, my engine runs smoother, more quiet, and feels less restricted/more eager to pull. Best oil I've used by far. I would 100% recommend AMSOIL.
