Default New Oil: Opinion need

I talked with local dealer service manager

and we were talking about oils..

and he said M1 synthetic is really good but

he said new castrol is better (RS6 have to use this oil:according to him)

but this oil is also for TDI. and it's 5-40W

also MADE IN GERMAN

anyone know this oil?
