9qrts of 0w40. make sure it's spec of 229.5. Mobil 1 is recommended.

Mobil 1 0w40 I have used it for over 10 years now and the car still drives like new!
The 2006 Mercedes ML-350 with the 3.5L V6 is factory specified for 0W40. The Mercedes specification number is 229.5, which should be printed on the oil bottle or jug for verification. The Mobil 1 0W40 "European Car Formula" meets this specification as of June 2014. Castrol Edge 0W40 is also 229.5 specified, and the bottle will be marked on the rear "Made in Belgium."
Use exactly what Audi recommends as listed in your owners manual and nothing else. Your A4 requires an oil that meets the VW 502 specification. Nearly all oils that meet that spec are a 5w40 or a 0w40 synthetic product, Mobil One 0w40, Amsoil 5w40 European formula, Castrol 0w40 European formula, the best performing being the Amsoil with the Mobil One very close and Castrol is adequate. Read the back of the bottle and ensure it states that it meets the VW 502 spec/ACEA A3/B4. Do not use a 10w30 in that engine if you want longevity for you or the next owner.
Factory fill is Mobil 1 Synthetic 0W40 European car formula. You'll need to look in the owner's manual for capacity and change volume.
Your Audi requires a synthetic oil that meets VW 502 specs. Mobil One 0w40 is an excellent choice. It is one of the very few oils that meet VW 502 specs.
No cause for alarm. BTW.. Mobil 1 is a ripoff. There are other syn oils that last for one year that costs less. 10W30 is all climate oil,and you should not be concerned. I use 10W30 Pennzoil full synthetic and live in Canada.
