UNLEADED
All VW's since 1967 have hardened valve seats and do not need lubrication
Premium is only needed if your compression ratio is above say 8:1
Stock was 7:1 or there abouts.
Lead Replacement is for cars with cast iron heads.
Use the search function - This has been discussed many times.
By the way - hi and welcome!! :bounce
