I have full service from audi but that b**** cant tell what oit they have put in,,so I decided to pump it out and use 5w30 as you said however when I start the engine from cold(at morning or after 3-4 h of not using it) it sounds like metalic lid on boiling pot of water,,I read about it and it looks the oil slip back down to the pan and engine makes the horible noise until it bulds up the preasure (1-2 seconds)....I might change it into something ticker in a few months.
