Engine oil RED LINE or OEM Audi

RED LINE Engine oil

I do not use auto oil. Motorcycles run hotter and I don’t trust car oil. I use Red Line. They sell a V-Twin kit that has engine oil primary oil and transmission oil, and fuel system cleaner. I buy one each spring.

If you can use Redline 5w30, go right ahead. You will not have an issue. I call Redline the guarantee oil. I can pretty much guarantee that you will never have the dreaded lifter tick. It has been known to quieten a ticking engine too.

Pros: guaranteed lifter tick prevention
Cons: can be expensive

RED LINE Engine oil

It's recommended by Nissan to use ester based oil. I use redline 5w-30. Pricey but I feel the difference and motor runs flawless imo

Pros: motor runs flawless
Cons: pricey
Vehicle: Nissan

RED LINE Engine oil

Using Redline 5w-50 on my E90 M3. it's supposed to have a similar viscosity at high temps as most 60wt oils. Comes up to operating temp faster and doesn't overheat.

Pros: high quality, doesn't overheat
Vehicle: BMW

RED LINE Engine oil

The best oil to use is the RedLine full synthetic two-stroke Racing oil. Modern full synthetic two stroke oils are way better than older oils and work great.

Pros: works great, way better
Vehicle: Saab

OEM Audi Engine oil

On my 1.8ts I usually change it when the motor blows up and has to be replaced. They used to last perpetually but builds have progressed to the "Yes it absolutely is going to grenade or window the block before 10k miles???? so really I only ever have to FILL oil 1 time???? I wish this was less true than it actually is. On the rest, (2.7tt and 4.2) 10k miles if you use good full synthetic oil and a nice filter

Pros: 10k miles with good oil
Cons: engines blow up before 10k
Mileage: 10000 km
