i think we used the quantum semi sinthetic stuff when we changed mine! (get it from vw, its the stuff in the silver bottle)

if i remember correctly, the haynes manual says how much, but we questioned it because it says the g40 takes less oil than any of the other models! which is wierd when you are running oil around the charger as well as the rest of the car!

my advise, fill up bit by bit, we know its 3 litres roughly, but make sure you don't overfill! :o
