The recommended oil type on the 2005 Volkswagen Passat iS5W-40 or 5W-30. Some of the products that You can use are Castrol Edge Synthetic Motor Oil 5W-40 or Valvoline Synthetic Motor Oil 5W-30. The purpose of engine oil on Your vehicle is to keep Your vehicle lubricated and to elongate its life. Not only does it lubricate but it also prevents overheating and reduces friction. By Your oil reducing friction in Your motor, it is helping its components live a longer life. You really need to baby Your motor because replacing it costs a pretty penny. I would recommend checking the oil level at least once a week with daily use to see if it needs to be topped off or not.
