Maybe better to play it safe and install an auxiliary oil pump for the transmission for long EOC coasts  Engine on coasting should be fine no matter what. |
It's not a DSG - Tiptronic. I think the Audi "version" of DSG is called S-tronic. There is also (confusingly) Multitronic which is a CVT. S-tronic is the best, Tiptronic the most reliable and Multitronic the smoothest - from what I have read so far.
EDIT - Tiptronic is a normal 6sp Auto with a torque consumer but will flappy paddles added.
