2003 Volkswagen Beetle Owner Comments

I have a 2003 conv/new Beetle 1.8T engine 69,200 mi. It's had regular oil changes, garaged kept and low mileage less than 10,000 mil per yr. Per the VW service dept it has sludge build up. To my understanding other 2003 new Beetle owners have had the same problem. Very costly to fix. Per VW it's out of warranty and it's nothing they can do.
