That's the 12V V6 engine, and yes, it's interference.
I recommend 60K mile timing belt replacement intervals.  I believe
Audi's recommended interval is 90K, but I think that's stretching your
luck a bit.

Water pump, and other belts, are some easy "while you're in there"
items to replace.  It's relatively cheap insurance.
