On the A4 (manual gear box) it's the same oil for the tranny and the TorSen so I should be the same.

Do you consider the CV joints part of the front differential?

Default they are an independent component of the drive system...
An axle shaft inside a housing would still be able to be referred to as part of the axle and while it attaches to the differential it certainly isnt part of it.
