Go to synthetic oil and follow the manufacturer's recommendations...
 
I am just having my oil changed during the regular maintanence schedule. I would also recommend you switch to a synthetic oil (I use Mobil-1).

Also, I would recommend having the dealer change the oil filter each oil change. The Audi Advantage services only change the oil filter every other service. The oil filter is fairly inexpensive. If you bring in your own synthetic make sure you get credit for it -- the credit should pretty much cover the cost of an oil filter and the additional labour charge.

Re: oil change
 
The synthetic oil is good for 7500 without a doubt, but if you care about your engine, you should do a filter change mid-way...
