Best Engine oil for Audi S3
My S3 seems to be at 222F all summer when commuting, I think it gets near 240F after a good autocross run
Hi Vr6oom, I have a 2015 S3 with 10.3k miles and also trying to reduce IVD and oil consumption as much as possible. After a bunch of research that I have done to find the lowest possible noack, saps for 5w40, which is the viscosity recommended. I have settled for redline 5w40 euro series, just got my UOA back from Blackstone after 5k miles and everything is looking fine for extended oil use. So far little to no oil consumption
The only one that I found that met my standards was redline 5w40 euro series. I have just got my uoa from blackstone and everything looks fine, so for 5k miles on it and no oil has be added.
