Default How many quarts of oil does the 2.3L 20v take? Search results inside >>>

I read up on 20v.org that it take 5 quarts of oil.

I then read the model guide on audiworld and it says: 3.7 U.S. quarts

Now which is it?

So now I am totally lost...STFA nothing pulled up in the first 5 pages...

Thanks!

Default my 2.3 10V takes 4...the 3.7 is just for the motor...you have to include that little extra...

for the oil filter too.

Default You didn't answer his question. He has a 20v not a 10v.

Answer is 5qts. I go to Wal-Mart and buy their 5qt Mobil 1 10w-40 jugs. Works good that way and cheaper.

The Audiworld specs page has a lot of errors. The 3.7-4qts is for the 10v not the 20v.

Default 20v.org > AW in many ways. Use AW search archives info selectively...

as you can see in this example, 4000fixes answered it wrong and had somebody not corrected it this would come up in a search and somebody could get screwed badly...just my $.02

Default Direct from the 18 year old Coupe Quattro owner's manual: 5 quarts

Looked it up when I was buying some oil for my son's car, it takes 5 qts including filter.

And boy did I feel old when I realized that manual and the car are older than my almost 16 year old son...
