Just recently got and Audi Q7 and want to change oil. I'm really confused! The owners manual says to use 507.00 in a 5W40 I have been unable to find ANY 5W40 that meets the 507.00 specs. So what is a good oil to use?

Liqui Moly 4200 or Mobil 1 ESP appear to meet the VW 507.00 spec.

Use 507 spec. That will be 5w30 or 0w30. There aren't any 507 spec 5w40 oils that I know of.

I use Triax Euro L 5w-30. It’s on Amazon so it ships in one day. Cheap price for a really high quality oil. I started ordering it in the 3-pack.
