Just took delivery of 2005 A6 4.2. Supplement to the owners manual said only use motor oil that meets the vw 502 00 standard. Who makes motor oil that meets this standard?

Please let me know.

Thanks

I was looking for the same thing for my Audi and I did a search for motor oil standard vw 502 00. I found this pdf with a copyright of 2006. Unfortunately the file size exceeds the limit allowed to upload to the forum so hopefully this link will help.
