Default 5.8 quarts, verified on Audi's website.

Default That's the same info as in the A4 brochure...not sure it's correct!

I need someone who has changed his own oil to give us the real number! Guessing with the numbers in the manual, brochure, web site is a little risky to over fill.


I guess the only way to really find out is when I change my oil and put in 6.0 quarts (0.2 over the 5.8 mark won't mean a thing) and then if I need to add more oil to bring the engine level up to the max mark we will know what's the correct quantity!

Default How much oil does the filter hold. Both numbers may be correct

just one os the pan capacity and the other is pan and filter capacity.
