It is a 1600, so probably.

I always used 20w50 or sae30 oil in a beetle but some say 15w40 just changed alot max 3k miles. Also using mineral oil, not semi and especially not synthetic as the engine runs hotter.

I always used Morris 30w in aircooled engines and avoided multi-grade and synthetic oil too.

From the mid 70's beetles were speced with multigrade oil. So was happy to use multigrade. Especially if the engine is the 1600.
