My Dad has a new 06 TDI Jetta. He tried Castrol TXT and got an avg of 43mpg. Switched to the new Maxlife 5W-30 Synthetic that's 505.01 certified (says right on the back of the bottle and I spoke to Valvoline) and achieved 51mpg with an avg of 49mpg running it. I recommend running the Maxlife Synthetic.
Valvoline's website under product specs for Max Life Synthetic shows 505.00 not 505.01:
