CASTROL GTX 2 ... Not Expensive...

recommended for Air Cooled Volkswagens..
Change Your Oil frequently...
Every 1500 miles... as Beetles don't have a proper oil filter...
only a strainer...
You can get a spin on filter to bolt onto VW air cooled engines

I use GTX2 as well. Used it for years in all my dubs.Everyone will have a preference though....

I believe that any good branded engine oil will be OK..
So long as its changed frequently...

I wouldn't use Home Brand etc , but some people do!!

[apologies to $2-63 Home Brand] 🙂🙂
