Interesting. The manual (page 376) does not list the oil capacity. It says you need to go here: https://www.audiusa.com/help/maintenance Going there however tells you nothing.

Pages 317 - 320 talk about oil and oil consumption as well as changing your oil. But nothing lists the amount of oil you need to replace.

I believe it is something like 6.8 - 7.2 US Qts. That is what the parts department said when I bought oil and filter. I bought 8 Qts but only put in 7 and my car has been sitting dead center for 7k miles now on the digital meter.

Did you do the oil change yourself? Which oil did you use? I believe its castrol synthetic but need to know the exact type as I am planning an oil change at around 5K miles.

Yup, did it with the MityVac pump. Its the OEM Castrol 5w-40 synthetic. I changed mine as well at the suggested 5k mile mark and will be doing it again soon at the 12,500 mark.

Where did you buy the oil from? I am able to get Castrol Edge Professional OE 5W-40 from eBay but its only 6 Qts.

Went to the dealership. I normally order stuff from ECS Tuning but they don't have an oil change kit yet for this vehicle.
