Default planning on my 1st oil change on my new to me 02 allroad.
I can get GC 0w-30 from my local Autozone. Just checking to see if there are better brands or grades others have used.

Default GC? What is that?
I've been using 0-40 and 5-40 SYNTHETIC M1.
As long as it meet the VW/Audi Oil spec you are OK.

I don't think your Castrol 0-30 is listed..?

I thought GC 0w-30 was what most people used on their ARs before?

Default Autozone also carries the Syntec 5W40, as listed in Paulroad's tech bulletin
That's where I've been getting mine.
