Volkswagen is not telling you the real problem it is not sludge that they are saying and making;ng you come up with all of your oil changes,oil has nothing to do with the problem there very hard pieces of some material breaking loose and clogging up the screen the mechanic in sandy or. never ever saw anything like it. it had to be scraped off with great difficulty. vw will fix it but not under the recall unless you just happen to have alllll of your receipts from oil changes, this is how they are skirting the real problem. good luck i am going to have the mechanic in sandy,or drop the pan clean it and scrape off the substance that is chipping off and give it a go. too bad the national hwy safety doesn't look into these things and stop taking the word of the mfg.
