Default Audi A6 2.7t Oil Capacity ???????????????????

Could someone please tell me the proper oil capacity of an 2.7t motor. I just went to change my oil and there is no way my owners manual is correct. I put 6 quarts in there and it was still low. I added a 7th and it still seems a little low. Any help would be great!

6.9 qt according to the Bentley manual.
I just did an oil change 2 dyas ago and I put in all 7 qts. Why bother keeping .1 qt and have the bottle sit in my garage...?

the '03 4.2 takes 8 so sounds right.
also, if you have a receipt from last time you had someone else do it, look at the quantity on it.
