Nice. I had one of the same generation that lasted for 623,000 miles. (no, that's not a typo). 89 Jetta 1.6 L Diesel.
I ran Castrol 20/50 Conventional oil in mine, but if I had it do to over, I'd run a 5/40 Synthetic which should lubricate better and flow smoothly in all temp ranges.
good luck with yours.
