Mine came out of an Audi dealer with spare fill up of Shell Helix Ultra 5w-30 so I presume thats what they have in the block too.
It seems to run anywhere between 90 and 98 degrees with Sport button off.

97 average on a motorway, anywhere between 95 and 110 dependent on how agressive the driving is. Castrol Edge 5W-30.
