Hello mate
Of course do it plus you really want to so don't stop yourself from doing it. If you haven't got the proper sucking machine which is very expensive then you have not much choice then go like for like. That is because as far as I'm aware, after draining all the oil down there still will be around 2 litres of oil left in the torque converted and you don't want to mix two different oils
Also if you doing it just for the sake of it like me, then don't upgrade the oil if you don't experience any serious issues and especially if you can't vacuum all of the oil.
Do the obvious pan gasket and filter.
Gearbox can be also done through a decent/professional independent audi garage which is equipped with vas and subscription as well as far as I remember.
