Engine oil Castrol or OEM Audi

I’ve always used 5W-30 Castrol Edge Titanium, available at Wal Mart. My Blackstone report came back good a long time ago on it.

I tested it myself on my 3.0T, pumped everything out with the extractor, then jacked the car up and pulled the plug, catching evening that drained out in a measuring cup. It had less than 1/4 cup of oil left in the pan.

Did this every oil change on my sq5. Made it 180k miles before trading it in. Works very well. That was the easiest oil change I’ve ever done. Of the 15 minutes the job takes, about 4 of those minutes is actually doing something

Definitely prefer the extractor here! So easy/clean and gets all of the oil. At least in a Q8 and b9 A4/5 it got everything

I’ve done both and extractor takes out like 97% of oil. I still had about a half cup when I pulled the plug.

Preferred Castrol edge 0w-20 during the warranty period and 5w-30 after the warranty period. The engine is quieter with 5w-30.

The ss will have Castrol that they use for big bikes it’s better than prolube and Motul 7100 in my experience.

I just use Castrol magnatec 10w40 here in the Netherlands in my m20.

Castrol euro 540. Tried liquid moly and a few others but my car burns them for some reason.

I recently changed the oil in a diesel Passat (150,000 kms) which had Castrol Edge put in 12,000 kms ago during the last service by a VW dealer. I have changed many oils in VW diesels and found the Castrol oil that came out to be the dirtiest, sticky, staining and sort of gritty oil ever.
