Dudes, I cannot imagine using 10w any-brand oil in a 2.7T, especially in cold weather. Thick oil could starve the turbos of lubrication at start up and that results in a very large expense. Really, really recommend 0W-30 or -40 and synthetic is best. The brand really does not matter in spite of all the hype, bias, and advertising. I've been running Mobil1 since I bought the car (as did original owner) with 37k miles and now at 178k. I change the oil every 8-10k and drive mostly highway. Synthetic is a little more expensive but cheap insurance against needing new turbos.
