Or, enter your vehicle details into any online car parts shop and they’ll show you what’ll work. I have a 2017 1.0 TSI that currently runs on 5W30, but also is specced for 0W30 LL. Both are fine. They're both about 6.5. It seems if we were talking about a diesel truck, that's near the max you would want to see before changing the coolant, a a Ph of 6 would be bad.

If you have the 2017 Golf GTI CXCB, which has a 2.0L four-cylinder turbo engine, you will need 6.0 quarts of SAE 5W-30 synthetic oil. Over the past fuel oil changes (every 8000km, car has 37000) I have done on the car I have noticed the coolant level getting slightly lower then when we bought it. But today coolant level was so low it triggered a warning light. The manual for my 1.4 TSI states: "If the engine oil temperature is in the range 80-110 °C, the engine operating temperature is reached. If the oil temperature is lower than 80 °C or above 110 °C, avoid high engine revs, full throttle and high engine loads."

If your dipstick comes up dry, that means you need some engine oil added right away. Also pay attention to whether or not it’s dirty. Clean, healthy engine oil will be amber- or honey-colored in appearance. If your engine oil is dark or visibly full of debris, that’s a good indicator that you’re due for a service appointment.
