I have always use Shell helix ultra on my Audi and Wv cars.. but on the
S6(2.2) i first used shell helix ultra, but when i used it on the racetrack
the engine was ticking alot when i came back to the pits, tthe oil was about
135/140 celcius.. so i tried Mobile 1 5/50 and went on the track again and
drove it even harder and longer and there was absolutely no ticking or any
sound using that oil. so next week when i'm back on the track i'm changing
again to new fresh Mobil 1 5/50
