Default allow me to summarize.

you have 2 basic choices: a) use a VAG approved oil, or b) use a non-approved oil.

VAG-approved oil (502.00):

Pros - the approved oil for your car, which won't void your engine warranty.

Cons - Scott says it sucks.

Non-approved oil:

Pros - Scott says it doesn't suck.

Cons - not approved by the company that warranties your engine. Engines are expensive.

I hope you find this helpful.
