Yes. Filling the engine with synthetic Longlife oil on the production line. This can prevent the piston oil rings bedding into the bores, turning the engine into an oil user. A smart manufacturer (or a smart dealer) would recommend trying a running-in oil, as VAG used to prescribe. In fact they beat a big drum about first filling their engines with recycled oil on the production line to help them bed in their oil rings. All that changed with the advent of Longlife oil, charged at something like £17 a litre. The company boasts about not needing an oil change for 20,000 miles, but at an oil usage rate of 1,000 miles a litre, the engine will have changed its own oil four times by the time it gets to 20,000 miles. This is not acceptable, and it would not be acceptable to a county court judge to expect a car owner to fork out £300 on oil every 20,000 miles.
