Motor oil for AKH engine (S8, EZ 1998)

Hello to everyone,

so that my much driven V8 doesn't get bored, I have my vehicle fleet with an S8.
The car was imported 2 years ago from Koblenz, little driven in Hungary, then taken back by a bank, as the leasing and Kasko were not paid. TÜV has ended up in the landfill area of the bank. The car drove about 1000 km at the last owner (dental belts, rollers, oil, filter new), but that was a year ago. So oil change is up to date.
Audi - according to operating instructions - recommends 5W-40 or 5W-30 synthesis oils according to VW standard. Tomorrow I'm going to Vienna on business, where I'd get oil, because it's much cheaper than with us.
I'd need your advice on what oils would be best for the car? Engine MKB: AKH 250kW, 165000 km mileage.
I was thinking about Castrol (RS Formula 0W-40) or Mobil1 (Rallye Formula 5W-50).


Thank you in advance!

Hallo...

Unsere Audi-Werkstatt gönnt dem S8 0W-30 oder 5W-30...

Würde ich nicht empfehlen...nimm lieber Mobil1 0W-40!

Das 30er ist einfach nicht wirklich temperaturstabil...und bei dem Motor würde ich kein Risiko eingehen, dass dort mal der Schmierfilm reißt.

Zudem nimm auf jeden Fall ein vollsynthetisches, was das Castrol nicht ist...
