What is the Audi A6’s oil type?

I have an Audi A6 and it’s my baby. As such, I don’t trust anyone to drive it or do work on it, especially when I’m fully capable of doing it myself. Since I just bought it, I’ve never changed the oil before—what type of oil do I need for an Audi A6?

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
Having a car like the
Audi A6
 definitely feels like you have a new child. If you want to change the oil on your own, use either 5W-30 or 5W-40 motor oil—both types will lubricate the engine properly and provide great performance no matter where you drive.
The Audi A6 is arguably a work of art, but that doesn’t mean you have to spend beaucoup bucks to get it insured. Use the
Jerry
 app to quickly and conveniently compare quotes so you can maximize your savings on auto insurance.
A licensed broker, Jerry collects quotes from over 55 top-rated insurers in just 45 seconds. After you find a great rate, Jerry can help you buy new insurance and cancel your old policy. Users

Where can you legally sleep in your car?
I’m going on a three-month road trip across the U.S., and I’m pretty excited about it. After doing the math, I figured I could cut down on costs if I slept in my car part of the time. I’m just not sure where I can legally do so. Where can I sleep without getting hassled by Johnny Law or business owners?

If someone offers me $500 in cash to fix my car after they crashed into me, should I accept the money or file a claim?
They were at fault, but filing a claim seems like a lot of work and I'm not sure if it's worth it. What should I do?
