Are the Quantum / Fuchs brands not as Opieoils suggest ?

Thanks for taking the time to reply,
Are the Quantum engine oils any good? A friend works at a Volkswagen TPS and says that the 5w30 LL3 and their 5w40 Platinum are good quality fully synthetic. He says they also do a basic 10w40 for older engines. He thinks it is all brewed by Castrol but the prices are almost suspiciously cheap when they have offers on so I do wonder if it's a good as he says?
Hi
As they aren't something we sell, I can't say too much, but like everything else, own brand oil is pretty much the basic option. Being made by Castrol/Fuchs/Shell etc is a bit irrelevant, it's made to VW's requirements, it's not a premium oil that is relabelled and sold at a lower price.
Cheers
