Engine oil Motorex or OEM Audi
Did this every oil change on my sq5. Made it 180k miles before trading it in. Works very well. That was the easiest oil change I’ve ever done. Of the 15 minutes the job takes, about 4 of those minutes is actually doing something
Pros: easy oil change
Vehicle:
Audi SQ5
Mileage: 180000 km
Definitely prefer the extractor here! So easy/clean and gets all of the oil. At least in a Q8 and b9 A4/5 it got everything
Pros: easy, clean, gets all
Vehicle:
Audi Q8
I’ve done both and extractor takes out like 97% of oil. I still had about a half cup when I pulled the plug.
Pros: extractor removes most oil
Cons: leaves some oil
Vehicle:
Audi S5
It works great, maybe a bit expensive. I've run used oil analysis and change it 3-4k miles based on aluminum wear. I don't see a reason to use something else.
Pros: works great
Cons: a bit expensive
I use Motorex semi-synthetic 4t in all of my KTM's over the years in a 15w50 weight. It has never been an issue. I have used Motul 5100 and 7100 in other bikes before, and I prefer the 7100 over the 5100. It feels like the bikes perform better when the temps rise and I'm really riding them hard.
Pros: bikes perform better
Just came across this. Mine is a 2024 w 31 hours. I always used Motorex but I’m trying T6 this time. I use it in all my other off road bikes. In the 2t it’s just the clutch and trans. Also I’m changing it every 10 hrs
It takes a “synthetic blend” of motorex 15W50 oil. And uhh yeah works good I guess, don’t have to change it too often, and as far as performance goes, it doesn’t really matter because I’m on restricted power anyways so yeah ????♂️
Pros: works good
Cons: restricted power

Honestly Motorex is a good oil, but it is extremely expensive for what you get. I specialize in performing Used Oil Analysis (Worked for Reliability departments for mining outfits) and it’s just a Ho Hum oil.
Pros: good oil
Cons: extremely expensive
2015 Audi A3, new to me a year ago. One quart every 400 miles. First car I've ever owned that consumed this much oil. It's a nightmare!
Pros: new to me
Cons: consumes much oil, nightmare
Vehicle:
Audi A3
