      Yup, you can't go wrong with either the Millers or Castrol RS. The big advantage with the Millers is the 5ltr can. I also found higher oil pressure when running the Millers.

            my rs2 had 10W40 which is one of the recommended by the manual,but since i had a few oil pressure gauge problems,i changed it to 10w60.I havent got the car back from the mechanic yet,but he told me that everything is better now.Also make sure that you get the correct oil filter.I think mine was not the proper one which made the pressure go down to 1bar in idle(along with the 10w40oil as well).

            thanks Bill corrected!!!
            sorry for the confusion!

                    Audi won't have the 10w-60 if thats what your after. Best to get the oil filter and sump plug washer from Audi and mail order the oil in.
                    Unless you have a local distributor of the oil you want.

                    You can get the Castrol RS from www.castrolclassicoils.co.uk or www.opieoils.co.uk (remember you need a 4 Litre plus a 1 litre). Not sure where the guys here get the best deal on Millers though.

                        Get Millers 10/60 in a 5l can from your favourite local oil retailer.

                        Get your genuine VAG Oilfilter and sump plug and washer from VAGParts.com - make sure that you get the right filter for the right version of the S2 - I understand that the 3B and the ABY types are slightly different?
