Sheez,
As a third-generation engineering family, while the beancounters do have
sway over too much, they don't determine the oil "weight" specified for a
given engine. Lower weight oils are the norm for the last 15 years or so to
regain hp/mpg otherwise lost in inefficiency.
Oil standards have improved dramatically in the last decade for even
conventional "dino" formulations.
Just ask the Nascar boys what they put in for a 500...
Finally, as any *Audi* owner will verify, the clearances on new Audi engines
are remarkably tight. This ain't your mass-produced chevy with no cooling
capacity and slop fit parts.
