My next step is to switch the oil to Motul 8100 X-Cess (this is what I used in the past before moving to Ottawa).
Motul 7100, I use the same kind. Love the smell of motul oils.
Best Oil for TT RS driven harder than normal Motul 8100 X-Clean C3 5W-40 Oil. Trackdays Motul 300V High RPM 0W20
I've run Redline in several previous vehicles.
I run Motul 800 at the Motul recommended mix of 50:1. I use a JD jetting kit and my bike never spooges as long as I never let it sit and idle.
Motul Xcess full synthetic
I use Motul 300V Power 5w40 for my Stage 2 tuned S5 3.0 TFSI.
I run Redline 5w-40. I do not use the 'Euro' formula version, but the regular 5w-40 meets the VAG oil specs for a (2012) TT-RS. I used to run Mobile 1 0w-40, but I believe that Redline, Amsoil, Motul, and a few others are a higher quality oil (ex: Ester base stocks for Redline and Motul 300v).
Hi Vr6oom, I have a 2015 S3 with 10.3k miles and also trying to reduce IVD and oil consumption as much as possible. After a bunch of research that I have done to find the lowest possible noack, saps for 5w40, which is the viscosity recommended. I have settled for redline 5w40 euro series, just got my UOA back from Blackstone after 5k miles and everything is looking fine for extended oil use. So far little to no oil consumption
The only one that I found that met my standards was redline 5w40 euro series. I have just got my uoa from blackstone and everything looks fine, so for 5k miles on it and no oil has be added.
