Really? Because VW said so? He is out of warranty, and I have reaason to believe that specification is lacking in protecting this engine. If I bought a related BEW equipped car out of warranty, I would not necessarily use a 505.01 oil myself.
Hmmm, let me think, VW says drivers should use VW 505.01 and you say they should not. Who will I listen? Guy who "think" it is not necessary or people who actually designe engine? Tough decision!
