Volkswagen Bora EA111 engine uses fully synthetic engine oil.

It can use 5W-30 engine oil, but the prerequisite is that this 5W-30 must be a relatively high-viscosity oil that meets the 50200 standard among 5W-30 oils. Classification of engine oil: Engine oil is divided into fully synthetic oil, semi-synthetic oil, and mineral oil. Excluding factors related to manufacturers, generally speaking, fully synthetic oil has the best performance, followed by semi-synthetic oil, and mineral oil has the poorest performance. Among the performance indicators, the antioxidant performance, which can also be understood as the oil's shelf life, is included. Again excluding other factors, generally speaking, the shelf life of mineral oil is 3 months, semi-synthetic oil is 6 months, and fully synthetic oil can last up to 1 year.
