I have a 2009 TT 3.2 DSG and really am happy with both the engine and transmission. [Wish mileage could be a little better, but it is 'reasonable'].

I read a lot about the sludge and deposit problems on some VAG engines...1.8 and 2.0 and some others... ostensibly due to direct injection. There are some troubling threads on the net currently....but none seem to mention this engine.

I do try to always utilize 'top-tier' gasoline , proper oil specs/frequent oil changes, fully warmed up etc etc.

My real question ....are the 3.2/narrow angle VR 6's formerly used in the TT's experiencing the 'sludge'...oil deposit buildup?
thanks
Mike

well...I am taking the fact that there were 199 views and no replies in 2 months as good news.....must be no sludge problems with the 3.2 v rs.
I had seen so many postings on the 1.8 and 2.0 that I assumed it carried over to the 3.2 , evidently not
