Scott, 15W-40 may work fine where you drive.  I drive in well over 100 F at times, and so prefer to stick with the 20W-50 that is recommended by VW for summer temps.  You are satisfied with results you've gotten with Chevron Delo.  Do you know if it is available in 15W-50?  Guess I need to look about.

Thanks for your commentary.
