Servicing questions

Hi All

Which oil is recommended for the Q5 2.0 TD Quattor? Is Mobile 1 ESP 5w30 suitable? I use this oil in my Golf Plus 1.9TDI and am very pleased with it, but that car does not have a DPF.
Also How much oil is required for the Q5?

The fuel filter appears to be an inline type which i have not come across before. How difficult is that to change? How often does that need changing?

Thanx in advance.

Somebody must have an idea about these questions. I didn't think they would be particularly difficult for the knowledgeable members on this forum.

507.00 .

Quantum Longlife III is the cheapest approved .

Just a quick update following the service.
Mobil 1 ESP 15w30 is suitable as it meets all the specs. My Q5 (2.0 TDI) took exactly 5 litres of oil.
Oil filter is easy to change from above but getting to the sump plug requires taking off the engine guard from below.
The inline fuel filter requires more removal of under floor panels but the good news is that it does not need VCDS to prime. Just replace and start the engine.
