Audi OEM Oil spec & producer

Post by SuzaFan » Thu Nov 30, 2023 11:22 pm

I suppose there are already numerous questions about oil...
Do you know who produces OEM 0w30 oil for Audi?
And do you have detail spec of that oil?
I called the dealership today as I always like to have 1 spare litre in my garage, for potential top up. (although I hope my RS4 will not use much oil...)
They told me the price 43€/litre - total rip off.
I decided then to get same spec Motul 0w30 Specific 504 00 507 00...(that is the name of the product) for normal, reasonable price...
https://www.motul.com/gb/en/products/sp ... 07-00-0w30
Been using Motul in all my previous cars/motorbikes and as a matter of principles I will not be paying this stealership price for the “Audi” oil...I bet Motul is even better that that Audi stuff...
Therefore, I just wonder if you might know who the producer for “OEM” Audi oil is...and what oil do you use in your RS4s?

The first and only time I bought some oil (obviously with the special Audi gold flakes in it which is why it costs so much) from my local Audi dealer they supplied, Shell Helix Ultra Professional AV-L 0w-30 Pure Plus Fully Synthetic Engine Oil and I have used it ever since with no problems.
The key wording I think is Fully Synthetic.

100% synthetic for sure…
I was positively surprised how even in the user manuals it clearly states just mandatory viscosity 0w30 and specification VW504 507…
EU laws have obviously managed to force them to stop blackmailing with mandatory brands e.g. “Audi” oil…
