hi
Whats the recommended , engine oil for audi a3 2.0TDi 140CR 61 plate ? And how many liters is needed ?

507.00

 

[Patrico777]

507.00

Is that grade ?

No, 507 is the VAG specification.

Same basic engine as mine? Mine holds around 4.25 - 4.5 litres including the filter. You should use VAG compliant 507 to look after your DPF. Example attached:-

look on Ebay for quantum long life 5W 30, it's what most people use. you should be able to find 5l for around £25.
