Engine oil Shell or OEM Audi

Shell Engine oil

Rotella 5w-40, for no other reason than it is good oil that I can use in every internal combustion engine I own, including wet clutches.

Pros: good oil
Cons: too thin IMO

Shell Rotella T6. It's marketed as heavy diesel oil, but it meets the exact same specs as mobil 1 full synthetic and just has some extra detergent like diesel oils do.

This oil in OG 9-3 that have the crankcase retrofit kits clean the entire engine very well after a few oil changes getting rid of and preventing any sludge issues. The oil even eliminated some nasty tappet noise due to low oil pressure in my 2002 9-3 after a few seconds when I bought it.

Pros: cleans engine, eliminates tappet noise
Cons: marketed as heavy diesel oil
Vehicle: Saab

I just hit 19k miles on my 2017 390. I ride it like someone stole it. Also thousands of high revving miles on the highway.

I use nothing but Rotella T6 15w-40. It is really good oil and it is cheaper than almost anything else you can use.

Pros: really good oil, cheaper

Everyone has their preferences, at the end of the day it doesn't really matter, just change it regularly. I've used Mobil1, Pennzoil, LiquiMoly, Royal Purple, Rotella and probably a couple others I'm forgetting. No noticeable difference between any of them.

Pros: no noticeable difference
Vehicle: BMW
