My Indy did an oil change when he did the transmission and timing belt. Fuchs I 
think...


Speaking of the transmission, the proper vw manual transmission oil is thin 
like ATF, I'm getting a distinct grinding noise when I go into first if the car 
is moving which my '98 with the same trans doesn't do. That has Redline MTL in 
it. I'm thinking I'll put MTL in this car too and see if it clears up.

A dose of RedLine and an oil change quieted my TDI down quite a bit,  
and smoothed it out, too.  I don't know why better oil would make the  
engine run that much smoother, but I noticed within a dozen miles or so.

I use Mobil 1 T&D, it's readily available and most of the "rated" oils  
are not.
