2.7t Oil Questions.
2000 A6 2.7t. with ~90k miles.
Ive tried searching and cant find the info.
Does this year A6 have issues with smaller oil lines to the turbos? Is it something that needs immediate attention? Is there an upgrade for oil delivery to the turbos available?
Also, Is there a certain oil that would be better suited for the size of lines present? I bought Mobil1 0w-40, is that a suitable synthetic oil for the turbos?
thanks.

Just make sure you let the oil warm up before hammering it, and give it a short cool down drive after aggressive use. I swear by Mobil1 0W-40 or 0W-30: used by the original owner for the first 37k and I've used it and running fine at 153k. Change it every 6-8k.
