What is the recommended oil type for an Audi A5?

I recently purchased an Audi A5 and I'm unsure of what type of oil to use for regular maintenance. Can you recommend a specific brand and type of oil?

For optimal performance, it is recommended to use fully synthetic oil with a viscosity of 5W-40 for your Audi A5. Some good options are Mobil 1, Castrol, and Royal Purple. Make sure to check your owner's manual for more specific recommendations.

I have been using Mobil 1 synthetic oil in my Audi A5 for years and have had no issues. It provides great engine protection and helps improve fuel efficiency.

You can also use a synthetic blend oil with a viscosity of 5W-40. It will still provide enough protection for your engine, but it may be a more cost-effective option compared to full synthetic oil.
