Maybe read a little better?
It's got a 10K mile oil change interval, from the very page you linked. Never mind that the link I posted above was from Toyota the manufacturer.
Here is audi, 20k mile

At the end of the day, it's not the oil, it's the filter. Most are good for 10-15k max, cheaper to just change the filter and keep going.

That's a 20k mile oil from amsoil, directly being advertised as such.

Audi appears to call for 10K mile oil changes, though I'm not going to check every single year and model.
AMSOil is good stuff, but they're not an automobile manufacturer.
