Hey,

I'm new to this forum and I recently purchased an '05 audi a6 3.2 quattro. I was looking to do the first oil change myself. Any suggestions on which oil to use? Kind of new to the car. Thanks.

 

0W-40 Mobil 1. It is expensive, but its good oil and is approved by Audi. The only oil I run in my car.

 

Audi has a TSB listing all of the oils that satisfy the VW 505 01 and VW 502 00 standards. Mobil 1 Synthetic is on the list, other well known oils on the approved list include Castrol Syntec, Pennzoil Platinum European Formula Ultra, Quaker State European Engine Ultra, Kendall GT-1 Full Synthetic Motor Oil, Motul 8100 X-cess, Motul Specific 505 01 502 00 505 01, Pentosin Pento High Performance, and Elf Excellium NF.
