    Which oil?

    Thanks for the help. So 5w-30 is way better then? I change oil every 12 months as that's what it says in the manual regardless of mileage (I do around 4k a year) Audi s3 2015. Should I use quantum 5-30 or mobil 1 or doesn't it matter?

    So many dealers and specialist are saying 5w-40 and some 0w-30 and other dealers are saying 5w-30. Acea A3 is the 5w-40 Acea C3 is the 5w-30 Should I go for the 5w-30 then as I want the best grade of oil and look after the engine as much as possible.
