My car consumes 1liter every 1000 km. İ hope you are right and Audi is wrong. Because i ordered 10w60 Supercar. İ will Try and we will see. Thanks.
Hey friend. Very good video. I have skoda octavia 1.9tdi diesel rider 2006 clocked 1lac kms on odo. Can you please tell me which synthetic oil i should use? Presently i used Mobil 0w40 fully synthetic oil which has 502 and 505 grades. Thank you brother.please reply.
You can also use VW507 in PD engines with DPF. VW507/504 are low saps oils and it is recomended for all vehicles with DPF. However, low saps oils has less engine protection, but it is better for catalytic converters, less sludge.... If you have PD without DPF, it is better to use 5W40 with VW505.01 (which is recomended by VW). For EA888 TSI petrol engines VAG recomendation is VW502/VW504.
Look at the same time MB specs, when 505.01 is satisfied, they also satisfy MB 229.31 or 229.51. The "1" at the last number indicates low saps oil for DPF. But I'm agree with you that high saps oils are better against wear.
For some reason this video comes up in 2021 for VW 504. The info here is not what Audi owner’s manuals say for their 1.6 TFSI engines from 2015 onwards. The VW spec for petrol/gasoline turbos is VW 502 00 for fixed interval oil change and VW 504 00 for flexible//longlife oil change. Audi diesels are to use 507 00.
Liqui-Moly is good oil, but I noticed the engine tends to really work at higher speeds. Switched to Castrol Edge and it gets to um, aerodynamically challenging velocity effortlessly. And doesn't struggle to stay there. Pricier but outstanding oil.
Revise the video. 504.00 is a gasoline engine specification. You can use a 504.00 spec oil in a diesel because 504.00 is dual specification with 507.00 in VW engine oil products. 507.00 is a PD engine specification.
I live in the Trinidad, the Caribbean where it is always very hot 35C. I have a 10yr old Audi Q5 2.0cc turbo gas engine. What oil do you recommend to use? at present I use LiquiMoly 5w-40 and the oil evaporates in the engine.
I live in Canada and use Castrol Edge 5W-30 (507 00): it is perfect, permits a smooth run, and the engine only burns less than 1/2 L oil for 15 000 km (Interval oil change)
You're wrong, The VW 504 00 specification is also for petrol engines, so the first oil in the video Castrol edge long life 5w30 can also be used in gasoline cars. In my car book I write that I can use the following oil specifications: 1. LongLife-Service VW 503 00 / VW 504 00 2. NON-LongLife-Service VW 500 00, VW 501 01 sau VW 502 00 I HAVE GOLF 5 1.6 GASOLINE.
Quoted from oilspecifications, VW 503.00 Long-life gasoline engine oil for VW cars with WIV (system for longer service intervals). Also meets ACEA A1, SAE 0W-30 or 5W-30 specification. VW 503.01 This specification is specifically for Audi RS4, Audi TT, S3 and Audi A8 6.0 V12 models with outputs of more than 180bhp, running with variable service intervals (30,000km or 2 years). Now superceeded by the VW 504.00 specification. VW 504.00 The VW 504 00 specification superceedes the VW 503 00 and VW 503.01 specifications. VW 504 00 oils are suitable for engines meeting the demands of Euro IV emissions standards. VW 507.00 Low SAPS oils suitable for Euro 4 engines and almost all VAG diesel engines from 2000 onwards with extended service intervals, unitary injector pumps and also Pumpe-Düse ("PD") engines. Excludes V10, R5 engines and VW Commercial vehicles without fitted DPF (diesel particulate filters) - these must use a 506 01 specification oil. VW504.00/507.00, available 0w30 or 5w30
Great info and post and thanks for posting, anyone can write comments and critique but it takes someone with knowledge and testicles to post good info like this.
There's a few factual errors in the video. 504.00 for instance is a gasoline specification engine oil. VW and a lot of the engine oil brand websites quote specifications and oil grades for all VW engines so a few minutes research will tell you which oil you need.

Ya.Mobil 0w40 is very good oil .It has vw 502 and vw505 approvals.It makes engine smooth and clean. I use this in my skoda octavia 1.9tdi diesel 2006. It just clocked 1 lac kms. Please tell me 5w40 or 0w40 for 1.9tdi diesel?
What the hell's the big mystery? Put the 5w30 stuff in that has the 504.00/507.00 code on the label. It works in VW petrols and diesels whether the diesel has an injector pump, a PD system or common rail. They've got a 0w20 with a 508.00/509.00 code out now which is for new engines. It'll be in the manual if you need to use it.
I've done a couple of recent oil changes on VW TDIs. I'm now using oil brand Smith and Allan. Their 5w30 Unelite VX is a 504.00/507.00 spec and the engines are running well. If I service a car that needs 5w30, I'll use 504.00/507.00, whether a VW or not.
Quantum brand used to blended by Castrol and as far as I'm aware, now blended by Fuchs. None of the car brands blend their own oil. They buy in bulk and have their own label stuck on the containers. Mercedes brand oil, supplied by Daimler AG, is blended by Fuchs.

I live on the coast, the temperature is often over 40 degrees Celsius, which engine oil vw passat b7 2011 year, 2.0 tdi. 125 kw. The manual says 5w30 and only VW 507, can a little thicker oil be poured.
Very helpful video 👍 I have been using a total 5w40 synthetic oil for my vw engine, what's the implications supposing I want to change to a castrol 5w40? Thanks 😊
Vw504 00 not complies vw503 00 and vw503 01. So vehicles that have 503 00/503 01 can use 504 00 oil. That is castrol edge 5w 30 LL. Goes for all gasoline as well as diesel. TDI’s are usually vw 505/505 01.
Hi, Thanks for the great information. I have an Audi A6 (4B) 2.4 V6 from 2004. I have been using Castrol 5w30 but as you say in the video I have the same issue with the oil consumption! I drive almost everyday, Witch one do you recommend for my Audi A6? Thanks (Y)
Thanks for explaining that so well. So I guess I’ll try that 10w 60 in the middle of your diagram that you said you really loved, for my 06 TT 3.2 ltr VR6. What would you recommend for a new 2.9 ltr V6 that Porsche borrowed from Audi in my 21 Macan GTS? It seems to generate a lot of heat compared to my 17 Macan GTS with it’s Porsche derived 3.0 ltr V6. Is it because of the "hot-V" setup or whatever in my new one?
hello, I have an Audi A4 car with a 1.6 ALZ 2003 engine, I need oil every 1000km, 300mg, I use 5w30 LL 504/507 oil, can you give me a solution, what oil can I use for the car's engine, thank you
Am I right in thinking this video is on the subject of the VW TDI engines and the right oil? If its a PD or CR engine, use the appropriate specification oil and you should have no bother. 506.01 and the 505.01 are the older specs and 507.00 is the newer and higher spec.
Hey I appreciate your video. I got 5w30 LL it has specs vw 504/507 but it doesn't say DIESEL. Is it ok to use it ? Some bottles say for diesel engines so I'm confused... The car is VW passat 2012 TDI
507.00 is the diesel engine compatibility - so it should be fine. newer engine (ie Euro 5 or above)? You may even be okay with 505.00 but refer to your owners manual supplied with your car for VW's official
10W60 does not have the Vw502 approval. 1.8 TFSI requires Vw502 or Vw504. I have oil consumption issue. Currently using liqui moly 4200 c3 5w30. Will swithcing to Shell 0w40 (a3b4) Castrol Edge 5w40 (c3) be better or Motul Xmax 0w40 (a3b4) or Motul Xcess 5w40 (a3b4) or Mobil FS 0w40 (a3b4) ? Those are my options Shell is the most expensive option. Shell and Castrol are the safest as I will be able to get them from petrol stations so they will not be fake. Mobil and Motul's genuinity is a big question mark for me as I can not find them from petrol stations, and cant be sure about the ones from auth. sellers when we all know that even distributors sell fakes. From all of this which one would you recommend?
Ok so I’ve got an Audi a3 petrol 1.8 tfsi stronic and I’ve just went stage 2 tune what oil should I put in my car then ? Still 5w -30 LL which is recommended stock ? My engine is direct injection with 8 injectors I’ve heard dose that make a difference
I can't seem to find what oil to use in my owner's manual for a 2017 Audi A8L with 68000 miles. Any good suggestions? The manual only said Castrol Edge Professional.
using heavy oil for reducing oil consumption could cause more damage due to reduced flow, increased oil pressure hence increase resistance. Rod bearing might not be getting proper lubrication. Typical vag engines has defective piston rings, thats the fix
10w60 flows slowly only below -10C. In normal driving, it’s fine. Just 22 cSt. Keep in mind that 5W30 has 11 cSt at 100C and 50 cSt or so at 40C. No problem as long as temperatures don’t go lower than 0 degrees C.
whilst the engine is off, yes its equal to outside temps but once its at 80c above it runs dependent of it operating temps which makes it too heavy for your engine. Even BMW e92 M3 are having issues with rod bearings with specified 20w60.
I have same car and use Mannol 5w 30, 504 specific fully synthetic engine oil. Its made in Germany and i believe its a true synthetic oil. You can buy cheap on ebay. Use shell V power fuel only for this car. Regular unleaded will make your engine rattle when pulling away, espeacially on hills. Let me know if need the proper oil filter make.
Castrol is not fully sunthetic oil, its a hydrocrack! So they call this full synthetic technology. In some countries like in Germany they are not allowed to sell hydrcocrack oil as a full synthetic. And the same oil here in the Netherlands descripes advanced syntehtic technology on the bottle, but actually is its a HC! Thats why i always buy my oil in Germany and for sure not Castrol in my VW Polo 9N 1.2.
I had a garage use Dexos 2 motor oil in my VW Golf and only prescribed 10,000km/6 months until next oil service. will this hurt my engine VW EA211 1.4 TSI
Hi thank you for you help! I have a 2006 VW Golf 1.6 Gasoline I just overhauled I have now 2000 kilometers and i want to change the oil for the perfect one. I live in Belize very tropical place; what cain of oil I suppose to use? Castrol or Lucas? What cain?
At the link you gave VW 505.00 is for diesel??? But in video you say 505 is for gasoline i m little bit confused. VW 505.00: Passenger car diesel engine oil specification, minimum performance level CCMC PD-2. Lists viscosities SAE 5W-50, 10W-50/60, 15W-40/50, 20W-40/50 requiring 13% max. evaporation loss and SAE 5W-30/40, 10W-30/40 requiring 15% max. evaporation loss.
You've made a very useful material. I also have a question, I have the Audi a4 B8 1.8tfsi, it also eats oil. So far, I've been using 5W30 and that's probably for that. What oil you can recommend. I live in Poland and the temperatures in my country are between -20 / + 40.
Hi I found your video very helpful, I have recently bought at TTRS+ with 126k km in my area we have 8/12 months summer to extreme summer weather usually during autumn and spring we have 20-30 celsius and in Summer 35-45 Celsius. IS 10W60 Eneos good option??
We own a popular diner here in the Midwest, and I save the kitchen fryer oil to use in my VW GTI. I strain it well, so pieces of french fries and onion rings don't go in my engine. Much cheaper than Castrol, so I save a lot of money!
Good information there 99 im using Castrol GTX 5W--30 A5 B5 fuly synthetic im our VW passats they are 1.6 Blue motion diesels with common rail engines,, this oil seems to work well in VW bluemotion engines , what do you think in your professional opinion , greetings from Ireland , thank you for the video all the very best
Hello, what do you think for 2012 Audi A7 Prestige Quattro with 43,000 miles is better use Castrol Edge 5w30 or 0w40? Or can be some different better motor oil? Which is the best for Audi A7 with 40k miles? Thank you for your video is helpful..!!! 👍
vw 504.00 is meant for long life gasoline engine.... if not vw 502.00 is valid only if long life service interval is not used.... so vw 507/504 is suitable for a gasoline engine...
Hi, I’m looking for advice here. I’m VW Passat 1.8T B7 consuming 3000km/litre and I’m currently using Castro 5W40. Is it 10W60 can work to reduce engine oil consume ?
Informative video. Thanks for uploading. Can you tell me what is the best Castrol oil for my A5 sportback. It has a 1.4 liter tutbocharged engine . It is brand new and done only 2500km. I live in a fairly hot area. Temperature 31 - 34 celsius (88 - 93 Fahrenheit).
Hey, Firstly Thanks you informative video . My question here is I own an Audi Q5 2011 2.0 TFSI and I have 2.5L/1000 KM oil consumption Issue. I used 5W40 shall i try 10W60 ?
I have a car audi Q5 2010 2.0T TFSI which the required oil is VW 502 00 5W40. However , my oil consumption is very huge which consume 1L per 300km so I would like to switch to use castrol 10W60 oil. However, i can not find such oil has VW 502 00 approved. Could you advise my car can use 10W60 or not? Btw, my car has run 110k km already.
i have an 2.0 tdi CR CBAB engine code and i'm still using 5w30 LL on it with 190k miles on it. What do you think, should i go for a thicker enigne oil like 5w40 or should i stick with 5w30 LL ? Engine is a bit noisy. Thanks
Hey, nice and crisp informative video. Please help me with my doubt, it will be great. I have audi Q3 2013 2.0 TDI Quattro (this is not PD engine but normal common rail VW diesel). My OEM oil spec is 5w30 vw507, however due to hot climate conditions in India, I need to use 5w40, so it's only available with vw505.01. is 505.01 ok to use instead of vw507?
I have bmw e46 318i n42 with 130000 milage I use castrol full synthetics.0-40 because with high mileage thicker is better.ami I correct please comment ?

Diesel engines with PD & DPF - 5W30/5W40 - VW504 / VW505.01 / VW507
Diesel engines with DPF - 5W30 - VW504/VW507
Special Diesel engines - VW506 (V10 TDI)
Gasoline engines NA (No turbo) - 0W30 / 0W40 / 5W40 / 10W40 / 10W60 - VW502/VW505
Gasoline engines with Turbocharging/Supercharging - 5W30 / 0W40 / 0W30 / 10W60- VW502/505/504/507
Sport gasoline engines (aggresive driving) - 0W40 / 10W60 - VW502/VW505 (No long life)
Long life (casual or no sport driving or race tracking) - 5W30 - VW504/507
The best all around oil for gasoline (fuel economy / performance / protection) = 0W40 with no Long Life interval. For Diesel engines, 0W30 /5W30 with Long Life.
5 = cold viscosity
W = Winter
30 = hot viscosity
Extremely cold areas = 0W20 / 0W30 / 0W40 oil is recommended.

I use LIQUI MOLY oil now and seems to help better than Castrol. A dose of Ceratec maybe
may help
i use for my audi s5 3.0 liter tfsi 0-20 w c5 castor oil.Works prefect.
In my S5 B9 3.0 tfsi (2017) audi recommends thw 0W-20 but i don’t really want to use this oil because it can’t handle hot temperature
Castrol Edge FTT 5w-30 and Valvoline 5w-30 full Synthetic are the only brand I trust for my Audi.
i have leon fr 1.4 tsi 2018 ... 5W30 is ok for me ?
I use Castrol LL 5W/30 for my 1.4 TSI. It likes it.
Its gasoline the car bro
I've done a couple of recent oil changes on VW TDIs. I'm now using oil brand Smith and Allan. Their 5w30 Unelite VX is a 504.00/507.00 spec and the engines are running well.
If I service a car that needs 5w30, I'll use 504.00/507.00, whether a VW or not.
Quantum?
Quantum brand used to blended by Castrol and as far as I'm aware, now blended by Fuchs. None of the car brands blend their own oil. They buy in bulk and have their own label stuck on the containers. Mercedes brand oil, supplied by Daimler AG, is blended by Fuchs.
Liquid moly is best bang for the buck I use it in my shop for all German cars..but also I order a complete oil change kit for my Audi..oem oil oem filter oem plug and washer for under 60$ on ecstuning..might want to check them out..
Liqui Moly
I live on the coast, the temperature is often over 40 degrees Celsius, which engine oil vw passat b7 2011 year, 2.0 tdi. 125 kw. The manual says 5w30 and only VW 507, can a little thicker oil be poured.
Very helpful video 👍 I have been using a total 5w40 synthetic oil for my vw engine, what's the implications supposing I want to change to a castrol 5w40? Thanks 😊
All I know is for a Audi S4 B8 the best oil you should use is 0w 30 not any other.
Vw504 00 not complies vw503 00 and vw503 01. So vehicles that have 503 00/503 01 can use 504 00 oil. That is castrol edge 5w 30 LL. Goes for all gasoline as well as diesel. TDI’s are usually vw 505/505 01.
Hi,
Thanks for the great information.
I have an Audi A6 (4B) 2.4 V6 from 2004. I have been using Castrol 5w30 but as you say in the video I have the same issue with the oil consumption! I drive almost everyday, Witch one do you recommend for my Audi A6?
Thanks (Y)
You are 1 million percent right only use Castrol Syntec Audis
For audi A3 1.4 tfsi 8v 2013 what oil i should use ??
Plenty of Oil advisor apps online to tell you.
Millers Oil and Quantum are good ones.
Thanks for explaining that so well.
So I guess I’ll try that 10w 60 in the middle of your diagram that you said you really loved, for my 06 TT 3.2 ltr VR6.
What would you recommend for a new 2.9 ltr V6 that Porsche borrowed from Audi in my 21 Macan GTS? It seems to generate a lot of heat compared to my 17 Macan GTS with it’s Porsche derived 3.0 ltr V6. Is it because of the "hot-V" setup or whatever in my new one?

hello, I have an Audi A4 car with a 1.6 ALZ 2003 engine, I need oil every 1000km, 300mg, I use 5w30 LL 504/507 oil, can you give me a solution, what oil can I use for the car's engine, thank you
5W-40 works for my TT mk1
5w30 is the best
do I need to add some additive in oil ? thanks
liqui moly 5w30 works for my vw sharan 2.8L V6
Wich is better to choose for gasoline engine: ACEA C3 ore the ACEA A3/B4 ?
Am I right in thinking this video is on the subject of the VW TDI engines and the right oil?
If its a PD or CR engine, use the appropriate specification oil and you should have no bother.
506.01 and the 505.01 are the older specs and 507.00 is the newer and higher spec.
Hi,
I have an Audi A6 '13 3.0 TDI with 230k km.
I am between Castrol and Liqui Moly (5w-30 or 5w-40).
Which brand shouls I go for and what viscosity?
Hey I appreciate your video.
I got 5w30 LL it has specs vw 504/507 but it doesn't say DIESEL. Is it ok to use it ? Some bottles say for diesel engines so I'm confused...
The car is VW passat 2012 TDI
507.00 is the diesel engine compatibility - so it should be fine. newer engine (ie Euro 5 or above)?
You may even be okay with 505.00 but refer to your owners manual supplied with your car for VW's official
10W60 does not have the Vw502 approval. 1.8 TFSI requires Vw502 or Vw504. I have oil consumption issue. Currently using liqui moly 4200 c3 5w30. Will swithcing to Shell 0w40 (a3b4) Castrol Edge 5w40 (c3) be better or Motul Xmax 0w40 (a3b4) or Motul Xcess 5w40 (a3b4) or Mobil FS 0w40 (a3b4) ? Those are my options Shell is the most expensive option. Shell and Castrol are the safest as I will be able to get them from petrol stations so they will not be fake. Mobil and Motul's genuinity is a big question mark for me as I can not find them from petrol stations, and cant be sure about the ones from auth. sellers when we all know that even distributors sell fakes. From all of this which one would you recommend?
Is this OK for petrol 2012 Citroen DS3
Ok so I’ve got an Audi a3 petrol 1.8 tfsi stronic and I’ve just went stage 2 tune what oil should I put in my car then ? Still 5w -30 LL which is recommended stock ? My engine is direct injection with 8 injectors I’ve heard dose that make a difference
how about a 0w30 castrol edge c3
I can't seem to find what oil to use in my owner's manual for a 2017 Audi A8L with 68000 miles. Any good suggestions? The manual only said Castrol Edge Professional.
using heavy oil for reducing oil consumption could cause more damage due to reduced flow, increased oil pressure hence increase resistance. Rod bearing might not be getting proper lubrication. Typical vag engines has defective piston rings, thats the fix
10w60 flows slowly only below -10C. In normal driving, it’s fine. Just 22 cSt. Keep in mind that 5W30 has 11 cSt at 100C and 50 cSt or so at 40C. No problem as long as temperatures don’t go lower than 0 degrees C.
whilst the engine is off, yes its equal to outside temps but once its at 80c above it runs dependent of it operating temps which makes it too heavy for your engine. Even BMW e92 M3 are having issues with rod bearings with specified 20w60.
hi i own a vw golf mk5 1.6 with 320000km on the clock , which oil type can recomend. im currently using a shell HX 7 10W-40
I have same car and use Mannol 5w 30, 504 specific fully synthetic engine oil. Its made in Germany and i believe its a true synthetic oil. You can buy cheap on ebay. Use shell V power fuel only for this car. Regular unleaded will make your engine rattle when pulling away, espeacially on hills. Let me know if need the proper oil filter make.
Castrol is not fully sunthetic oil, its a hydrocrack! So they call this full synthetic technology. In some countries like in Germany they are not allowed to sell hydrcocrack oil as a full synthetic. And the same oil here in the Netherlands descripes advanced syntehtic technology on the bottle, but actually is its a HC! Thats why i always buy my oil in Germany and for sure not Castrol in my VW Polo 9N 1.2.
I had a garage use Dexos 2 motor oil in my VW Golf and only prescribed 10,000km/6 months until next oil service. will this hurt my engine VW EA211 1.4 TSI
Hi thank you for you help!
I have a 2006 VW Golf 1.6 Gasoline
I just overhauled
I have now 2000 kilometers and i want to change the oil for the perfect one.
I live in Belize very tropical place; what cain of oil I suppose to use?
Castrol or Lucas?
What cain?
Hi! Use 10w60
Thank you!
But I just overhauled; my engine suppose to be like new.
Please let me know what do you think!
I really appreciate your help!

What s ur opinion about the 1.6 fsi engine ? Do consume oil or no?
At the link you gave VW 505.00 is for diesel???
But in video you say 505 is for gasoline i m little bit confused.
VW 505.00:
Passenger car diesel engine oil specification, minimum performance level CCMC PD-2. Lists viscosities SAE 5W-50, 10W-50/60, 15W-40/50, 20W-40/50 requiring 13% max. evaporation loss and SAE 5W-30/40, 10W-30/40 requiring 15% max. evaporation loss.
You've made a very useful material. I also have a question, I have the Audi a4 B8 1.8tfsi, it also eats oil. So far, I've been using 5W30 and that's probably for that. What oil you can recommend. I live in Poland and the temperatures in my country are between -20 / + 40.
Hi I found your video very helpful, I have recently bought at TTRS+ with 126k km in my area we have 8/12 months summer to extreme summer weather usually during autumn and spring we have 20-30 celsius and in Summer 35-45 Celsius. IS 10W60 Eneos good option??
We own a popular diner here in the Midwest, and I save the kitchen fryer oil to use in my VW GTI. I strain it well, so pieces of french fries and onion rings don't go in my engine. Much cheaper than Castrol, so I save a lot of money!
Good information there 99 im using Castrol GTX 5W--30 A5 B5 fuly synthetic im our VW passats they are 1.6 Blue motion diesels with common rail engines,, this oil seems to work well in VW bluemotion engines , what do you think in your professional opinion , greetings from Ireland , thank you for the video all the very best

vw 504.00 is meant for long life gasoline engine.... if not vw 502.00 is valid only if long life service interval is not used.... so vw 507/504 is suitable for a gasoline engine...

Hey, nice and crisp informative video. Please help me with my doubt, it will be great. I have audi Q3 2013 2.0 TDI Quattro (this is not PD engine but normal common rail VW diesel). My OEM oil spec is 5w30 vw507, however due to hot climate conditions in India, I need to use 5w40, so it's only available with vw505.01. is 505.01 ok to use instead of vw507?

Thank you. Great information. A bit hard to see the white board but excellent presentation bro.
Some of your information is wrong. 504.00 is a gasoline engine specification. There is no 10w40 PD engine oil.
Hello brother I am using a skoda rapid 1.5 tdi dsg diesel in India. I m facing same problem as my car consuming 1ltr per 1000km almost. I m using 5W 40 . Should I change my oil type . There are not any leaks whatsoever. My car has done 139000km. 2015 model. Pls advice brother. Thanks
Hello, I have Jetta 1.9 TDI (AT) 2011
Which oil is better ?
Have a 01 1.8t with 250k miles on it oil consumption is an issue will the 10w 60 help my issue
VW504 is upgrade of VW502 for petrol engines
VW507 is upgrade of VW507 for diesel engines
VW504/507 is the best engine oil standard current for VW Cars
507.00 (5w30, 0w30) supersedes both 505.01 (5w40, 5w30 ) and 506.01 (0w30)
504.00 is a gasoline engine specification.
The newest generation of VW engines, I believe, require 0w20 which is 508.00/509.00 spec.

What kind of oil should I add in a V10 diesel VW Touareg ?
It's nice videos. So i want to ask you 1 question. Can I use 10W60 with my Audi Q7 3.0 TFSI?
Shortly, no! Look up Liqui Moly oil finder. Castrol, if made in US is as far from good oil as it can be. German made Castrol? Different story.
Try Shell T6 Rotella 5w40
