People say Redline is the way to go but some say to stay away. Does anyone know what Audi dealership uses?

What fluid will make my car happy?

i use redline MT90 in the center diff and mobil1 75w90 in the rear. you need a GL5 rated oil in the front though, which redline is. you can buy official Audi fluids at the dealership but they will be more expensive.
