I've got a 2019 Audi S3 with VW's 2.0 turbo engine. The spec for this car VW 504.00. I picked up a six pack of VW 0W-30 synthetic 504 from the VW dealer for my last oil change earlier this week. So I'm good to go. But I decided maybe I should carry an emergency quart of oil in the trunk, just in case. Better to be safe than sorry. I went to AA because it's much closer than the VW dealer. They had no quart size oil that met VW 504 spec. Didn't want a jug of Liquimoly. So I ended up buying a quart of Castrol Edge Euro car 5W-30 which meets the VW 502 00/505 00 spec. If I had to use this, would it really be a problem? I don't know what the different VW specs indicate. Is the 502/505 close enough to 504 to be safe? The car doesn't appear to use any oil and it holds six quarts. So worst case, if I had to dump in the whole quart of the Castrol, would it really make a difference?
Also, does anyone know who makes VW's branded oil?
Thanks for any input
