[Schnaz]

Hi Im about to do service to my a3 2.0 tdi (2013) whtas best engine oil for it? If any 1 could help.

Castrol Edge Titanium would be my suggestion. That’s also what most Audi workshops use.

Castrol edge FST 5W/30 29.99 on eBay for 5L or Miller eco nano which I have also heard is good stuff though slightly more expensive.

I use Castrol Edge 5w30 Titanium FST and MANN filters.

You can't go wrong as long as it's fully synthetic and you follow the viscosity recommendations e.g. 5w30.

EDIT: Aaaand also what @Retroman say below

 

[Retroman]

Important to use the 504/507 VAG approved low ash oil (as the examples above) as continually using standard 5W-30 cheap stuff is a cause of many EGR/DPF problems

You can't get much cheaper than the quantum stuff and its a quality oil.
