I use Mobil DTE-13M in the type 44's (three currently) and ATF in the 4000Q (two currently). Never any problems, and a heck of a lot cheaper than the Stealership.

If the reservoir SAYS green goo (probably Pentosin 7.11, based upon
time of mfg, cheaper stuff), AND there's been green goo in it, I'd stick
with green goo. If it already has ATF (red) in it, and it's not leaking,
you prolly can get away with it. But be aware, the seals were designed
with the specified fluids in mind.
BTW, you can update to Pentosin 11 (green can, red top) but cannot
backdate to 7.11 without a flush. Check the archives as to the reasons
why, I don't recall. If you're unsure what's in the car, I'd go with P11,
(which is the current spec Audi G00200) rather than risk backdating.
Sorry about that for your wallet.
