Great site with lots of help for folks like me. Reading through various posts, I came across good reviews for the Mag1 oil and I'm considering changing to it from M1 0w-40. I have an 11 Audi Q5 3.2 that feels a little off since I used M1 on the last change. I've only used M1 once after whatever it was the dealer was using on the free changes. I'm not a loyalist to any brand and I'm open to what works best.
I recently discovered I can get Mag1 Allfleet 5w-40 through my employer at a discounted price. I know the Mag1 Euro formula states it meets VW 502 00, but not the Allfleet which is branded more towards diesel and heavy duty use.
Has anyone used the Mag1 Allfleet oil on regular gas engines? Is it safe for use with Audi vehicles? Living in Los Angeles, my trips are short with lots of stops, with occasional road trips on weekends. I work 5 miles from home, drop kids off in AM, pick up in PM. Winter gets a little busier as I tend to frequent the local snow resorts.
Any help/suggestions are much appreciated.
