What is the recommended oil for the Audi A8?

I recently purchased an Audi A8 and I'm wondering what type of oil is best to use. I'm not sure if I should use synthetic or conventional oil or if there is a specific brand that is recommended. Can someone please advise me on the best option for my car?

Hi Laura, congratulations on your new car! According to Audi, the recommended oil for the A8 is a fully-synthetic 5W-30 oil. They also recommend using a brand that meets the VW 502 00, 505 00, or 503 01 specifications. This will ensure the best performance and protection for your car's engine.

Hi Laura, I've been a mechanic for over 10 years and I highly recommend using synthetic oil for your Audi A8. It may be a bit more expensive, but it will provide better lubrication and protection for your engine. As for specific brands, I use Mobil 1 or Castrol Edge for all my customers' Audi cars.

Hi Laura, I own an Audi A8 myself and I've always used the manufacturer's recommended fully-synthetic oil. It's important to follow their recommendations to keep your car running smoothly. I personally use Shell Rotella T6 and haven't had any issues.
