Today I accidentally found my old Scirocco's manual. The oil chart is totally different from my '96 Audi's chart, and maybe it's interesting to some people with older Golfs, Jettas, and of course, Sciroccos.
The chart shows suitable oil according to temperature range and oil type:
A: multiviscosity oil, VW 501.01
5W-20/5W-30*: <-10 C
10W-30/10W-40: -20 to 15 C
15W-40/15W-50: -15 to >30 C
20W-40/20W-50: -10 to >30 C
*Note: High RPM must be avoided when using 5W-20 and 5W-30
B: high performance motor oil, VW 500.00
Shows no weights listed, but a common temp range from <-30 to >30 C
C: single weight oils, API-SF
Note: Must be used only if other oils are unavailable.
10W: < 10 C
20W-20: -10 to 10 C
30W: 0 to 25 C
40W: 20 to >40 C
