You can also get 508/509 VW brand 0w20 but a bit more expensive at £49.90 for 5l.

That looks like a decent price. I have just stumped up £40 for a 6l of Fuchs GT1 Pro C3 for mine. It is 504/507 approved however.

I used Millers CFS 5W / 40, more expensive than the VAG and supposedly higher spec.

I also use Millers, my mk5 ran noticeably smoother and quieter on it compared to Castrol.

Castrol is overrated and overpriced IMO.

I buy the cheapest decent brand that meets the correct spec. Millers do a 5w40 for about the same price as that VW oil, as do Fuchs, Shell etc.
