My girlfriend just got this new Jetta in early July that is in my signature. She presently has 1800 miles on it & I wanna change out the factory fill now & get the debris out of the motor/filter. She states, "this car is designed to run 10,000 mile oil change intervals!!" Which, looking in the owners manual & warranty manual -- it does say -- 10,000 mile intervals. I finally talked her into changing out the factory fill at 5000 miles with, " I will buy the oil & filter." Why are some people just so hard headed to a point at times? Also, Castrol Edge is what is recommended from Volkswagon -- they put a Castrol Edge flier in with the manual when we opened it up & read it for the first time. I do plan on running the Castrol Edge 0W40 & Fram Ultra when the oil change is due. Hopeing the Castrol Edge can hold up to the task of 10,000 mile intervals because -- this sassy woman of mine is not gonna back down from her regiment after the initial oil change of the factory fill.
