★ Top Answer
The 2013 Volkswagen Passat with the 3.6L V6 engine requires SAE 5W-40 oil. Volkswagen suggests using synthetic oil for oil changes. There are two main varieties of oil available: conventional, which is petroleum-based and older, and synthetic, which is newer and designed to offer improved protection. Synthetic oil lasts longer than conventional, allowing longer intervals between changes. With synthetic oil, you can typically drive 7,500 miles before needing a change, compared to 3,500 to 5,000 miles with conventional. It's advisable to check your oil regularly to ensure it is at the correct level and free from any debris.
