Factory vs. Aftermarket: which oil is better?

I would use the factory recommended oil, at least while the car is under warranty. Once the warranty has expired you could use the Mobil oil and shouldn’t experience any problems.

What cars are similar to the Volkswagen Passat?

That’s the problem with VWs, you can get six good ones in a row, but the next one could be a lemon. Rather than a wagon you’re probably looking at an SUV. I would suggest a Kia Sorento, Subaru Outback, or Toyota RAV4.

2017 outback release?

MY17 Outback is on sale now. There are no major changes from MY16 model.
