What is the difference between VW 505 and 507?

VW 505 and VW 507 are two different engine oil specifications that are recommended for use in Volkswagen and Audi vehicles.

VW 505 is an older specification that was used in earlier models of Volkswagen and Audi vehicles. It is a mineral oil-based oil that is recommended for use in older petrol engines.

VW 507, on the other hand, is a newer and more advanced specification. It is a synthetic oil that is recommended for use in certain high-performance diesel engines of Volkswagen and Audi vehicles. It provides better engine protection and improved fuel efficiency, which makes it suitable for use in the latest generation of engines.

The main difference between these two specifications is the type of oil they recommend. VW 505 is a mineral oil-based oil and VW 507 is a synthetic oil. Additionally, VW 507 oil has a better thermal and oxidation stability, which leads to longer oil life, improved engine protection and better fuel efficiency.

It’s important to note that the use of the incorrect oil specification can cause damage to the engine and may void the vehicle’s warranty. It is always important to refer to the owner manual and consult with a Volkswagen or Audi dealer to ensure that you are using the appropriate oil specification for your specific vehicle.
