Default 2006 A4 3.2 Oil

I just bought a used '06 A4 3.2. Is the correct oil for this engine 5-30 or 5-40?
I can't seem to get the same answer twice in a row. My '01 2.8 used 5-30.
Help!

It all depends on the temperatures you drive in, Im in south florida I use 5-w30.

your going to have to do some more looking, Im not sure if what I would tell you is right so Im not going to say.

I know though that the colder the car lives in the thicker the oil and visa versa, I hope other guys can help you more

Default Audi approved oil

Here's the official list from Audi on approved oil for your engine.

I don't think it's the viscosity rating as much as HTHS strength and SAPS
