Is that info from VW teerak2uk? If you look at the individual oil manufacturers you often get different grades recommended. Like Comma oils here- http://www.commaoil.com/passenger-vehicles/products/view/551 (This is for 2003-2007 2.5.)
Interesting that neither Comma nor Castrol lists engine oil for the early AXE AXD engines (despite Castrol being the original suppliers of the oil). I must get round to changing mine soon but I reckon it pays to research the grade and the spec very carefully unless you are buying it from VW which could easily cost double.
