    0w-20 or 0w40 oil for 2021 A6 3.0

    I know VW switched to the 0w20 specification for fuel economy around 2019.

    I have a 2015 GTI 2.0 that calls for 0w40
    I have a 2020 GTI 2.o that calls for 0w20

    The GTI community still leans towards 0w40 oil

    Is there any debate on the 3.0 Audi Turbo motor 0w20 vs 0w40?
    me = 2018 Ford Raptor, 1990 944 Cabriolet
    wife = 2022 A6 3.0
    daughter #1 = 2015 GTI
    daughter #2 = 2020 GTI

    No debate that I am aware of but I always use 0W20. I also change my oil every 5000 miles.
