Yesterday I found my 2010 passat118 tsi ( petrol)is consuming too much engine oil, 4 weeks (1k km)it consumed about 1.5L, the oil level is below minimum, so I put 1.5L valvoline dura blend semi synthetic 15w-50 in the engine. I went to the dealer and booked a service in 2weeks time, the dealer told it is okay to drive and it is not going to damage the engine ,but I'm not convinced, because they are too busy to change the oil for me. Does anyone know if the semi-synthetic oil is going to damage my engine? I am really worried...

It won't kill your engine mate. What would be worse is not putting anything in it.Originally posted by zgz128 View Post

Sad to hear that your 118TSI is drinking.

It would be nice to buy some 504/507 oil from the dealer when you service the car just in case it still has a drinking problem.
