vs
Engine oil RAVENOL or OEM Audi
I can recommend Ravenol 5W-40 NDT oil, it's basically the best oil for the N57 (I assume also for the N47)
Pros: best oil
Vehicle:
BMW
If you can get your hand on it try some Ravenol with UVSO, it's like bottled Magic. Engines run so smoothly with it, father in law thought the engine was off with it.
Pros: engines run smoothly
In the end I went with the spec - RAVENOL VMP SAE 5W-30
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I have an 2007 A4 2.0T base. I bought the car with 120k miles on it in 02/19. Yesterday I hit the 224k miles on it. She's my daily driver, over the years I have changed/did the engine oil every 4k miles, car filters all over, wheel alignment, tires, brake pads, rotors, and the battery. Nock on the wood, my baby have been taking car of me. I'm actually surprised that this model is solid af.
Pros: model is solid af
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Mileage: 360000 km
First oil change at 15,000 kms. Went for Ravenol, it’s made in Germany and seemed like a superior choice.
Pros: superior choice
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 15000 km
Ich fahre in den BMS Ravenol RCS , deutsche Marke und die Tests bei Öl-Fans waren super ( professionelle Öl Analysen ) . 5k km max und gut . Kostet 11,90 im Ravenol Shop .
Pros: super Testergebnisse, gute Leistung
Mileage: 5000 km
Folosesc ravenol 99% din motivul ca au codul ala pe spate sa verific daca e ok.
Pros: autenticitate verificabilă
I do this on my Q5, I started using like half a quart of cheap new sacrificial oil to mix up the bottom of the pan and extract as much black oil as possible. I almost had an issue with the extractor tube getting stuck in the engine l, but I was able to get it out with a bit of force
Pros: extracts more oil
Cons: tube can get stuck
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
Currently have Ravenol EFE 0w-16 in and have use Pennzoil Platinum, Eneos, and Idemitsu IFG7. I noticed bit of emulsified oil on the dipstick especially when I run in EV mode mostly. So definitely get it out on the highway on a daily basis if possible and get a used oil analysis. I have had 3 done and all three showed various 0w-16 oils shear down out of grade and their Flashpoints decrease.
Cons: oils shear down out of grade
Vehicle:
Toyota
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
