5W-30 or 10W30 depending on your climate, 10W for cold 5W for warm. You need to use the VW equilavant of VW502-00 or VW 505-01

Read your owner's manual for the viscosity rating. But for the best protection, use Mobil 0W-40 synthetic. It protects the best, keeps your engine cleaner, provides extended oil change intervals, and has a rating right on the container that shows it's approval specifically for VW. Believe this. There are other synthetics (Amsoil, Pentosin,Alf,Castrol) that may be as good or better, but Mobil One will never treat you wrong. Your engine will last longer

I have to agree with the synthetic. I have an 04 Jetta turbo. I only run synthetic as regular oil breaks down faster at lower temps. With the technoligy they have put into synthetic it seams redundant to still sell regular oil.
