Base Cayenne 2011 V6 gas engine oil

Hello,
I am looking to doing DIY oil change. I have been looking into Motul 8100 x clean 5w-30. I am wondering is this approved by porsche?
My car is a 2011 v6 3.6 gasoline engine.

Thanks,

it's not. you need vw504 approved oil for v6 and diesel.

You can use Motul 8100 X Clean +, 5w-30, it is vw504 compliant. Not available everywhere though.

Yeah,I looked around no luck. I ended up going with the Motul specific 504-507. Which is compatible to Porsche c30

I got on autopartsway.ca. $14.75/L I figure it's more expensive than store shelf castrol edge and etc. but since there is no Mobil 1esp where I live, I opted for Motul. I also saw many positive review on Motul.

From everything I have read as well it is very good. And besides I get it in Canada through a friend for about $37cdn for a 5litre jug. I can't find Mobil 1 esp for this application except at the dealer.
