Castrol EDGE Euro for Volkswagen

The Castrol EDGE Euro line of premium engine oils have been engineered to exceed the manufacturer test limits ensuring the highest level of protection and performance for your car. 


High performance car manufacturers often create unique motor oil specifications to ensure the lubricant can withstand the intense pressure generated in a high output engine. 

  • To ensure compliance, the vehicle manufacturer develops a series of engine tests to measure the oils performance. 
  • Before approval is granted, the oil must achieve the minimum value required in each test.

EDGE 0W-20 LL IV (VW 508 00/ 509 00)​

2.2X better engine cleanliness to help maximize engine performance (PV 1481 test data)​

Castrol motor oil protects an engine in many ways, including prevention of the formation of deposits on engine valves and pistons.  These deposits often occur as a result of the extreme internal operating temperatures created during the fuel combustion process. Castrol’s high-quality motor oils clean these critical metal surfaces with detergent additives to prevent deposits from forming even under intense operating conditions.​

2.5X better wear protection to reduce friction and optimize performance (OM646 LA test data)​

One of the key functions of a motor oil is to prevent metal engines parts from coming in contact with one another. The area between the cam shafts and cam lobes relies on a very thin layer of protection and is the most likely site for metal-to-metal contact to occur.  When these surfaces contact each other, the result is wear and fatigue of critical engine parts which can reduce engine performance.​

1.7X better viscosity control to help engines run better for longer (OM646 LA test data)​

Viscosity breakdown in motor oil can result from the mechanical shear that moving engine parts put on the lubricant.  This shear breaks the oil down at the molecular level and reduces the initial viscosity. This reduction in viscosity increases the probability of metal to metal contact and decreases the motor oil’s ability to provide engine protection. 

2X better engine cleanliness to help maximize engine performance (DV6 test data)​
