Does the 2.7T state in the manual that it requires synthetic oil?

I'm looking in my 2000 A6 2.7T owner's manual and it says you can use petroleum-based or synthetic-based oil.  Here's a quote from the book, under Engine Oil Specification and Viscosity:

Your engine was factory filled with an all season high quality engine oil.  If you need to add oil between oil changes, use any high quality petroleum- or synthetic-based oil with correct specifications.

The following terms must appear on the oil container singly or in combination with other designations:

-API Service SJ
-ACEA A2 or ACEA A3
-VW 502 00 or VW 500 00 or VW 501 00

As for the interval, the maintenance manual says 8,000 miles.

Hope this helps.
