Here in Alberta, we tend to use 5W40 synthetic oil. Climates can drop pretty low so the wider range is good for our Cabrio. Which also uses that 2.0L NA engine. The synthetic is a really nice oil to use too, no problems so far.

Hello
Your engine oil should be as follows

for cold climate 5W/30 semi-synth
for moderate climate 15W/40 semi-synth
for hot climate 20W/50 semi-synth
alternative moderate climate 10W/40 semi-synth

Your coolant system holds 10ltrs from empty you will be able to get this from your VW dealer (just use red or blue anti-freeze)

If its running fine on 95 benzine but you would be better putting a higher benzine in the car.
