Re: Audi approved synthentic oils..
Hi
I have just obtained an A2 1.4 TDI, and have established that the following
spec is the top spec to obtain the maximum miles between oil changes:
SAE 0W-30, 506 01. It (Castrol SLX Longlife 2) can be obtained from Halfords
in a 4 ltr container for just under £40. Halfords have now got a 10% off all
items, so this is the time to purchase. As a matter of interest, have just
obtained my first economy check, and it was 55.5 mpg with mixed runs.

That's for the 1.8T... What about approved viscosities for the 3.0
Quattro??

Seeing how the turbo appears to be a bit harder on oil than the V6,
you can definitely use any of the oils listed. The owner's manual for
my 2.8L V6 says to use 5W40.
I have had good luck with the Castrol Syntec 0W30 (Made in Germany on
the back of the bottle -- available at AutoZone in the US) or Syntec
5W40.
There are plenty of other good oils to choose from, however.

Seeing how the turbo appears to be a bit harder on oil than the V6,
you can definitely use any of the oils listed. The owner's manual for
my 2.8L V6 says to use 5W40.
I have had good luck with the Castrol Syntec 0W30 (Made in Germany on
the back of the bottle -- available at AutoZone in the US) or Syntec
5W40.
There are plenty of other good oils to choose from, however.
