There are a lot of these motors seizing. I also have good friends at the top of NTSB and some political muscle. VW will not cut a deal. I am in the process of filing a law suite against VW. I am curious to the cause as well as I have never seen deposites like this in motor before. I have taken...

Why another Chinese Civil War? The farmers in the outer provences have things worse now than anything in 40 years. There is also a large single male population that will never have families due to the shortage of women in the country. This historicaly has been a major factor leading to civil...

Not much VW has been replacing some motors but not others. I understand this is a widespread problem and if VW did a recall it would bankrupt VW NA. I have filed a complaint with the NTSB on this for a recall. I am going to ask some Audi race guys about this problem. I knw it is a problem with...

No I was using Mobil 1 for gasoline engines. The 1.8 T is a gasoline engine. What I think was happening was that the turbo oil channels were "cooking" the oil causing the carbon deposites.

I do not know what the water temp was. I was thinking that turbo motors run a little hotter than non turbo. Synthetic Mobil 1 every 5,000 miles. 95% was rural Highway driving constant speed 65 mph, 6 to 5 hours at a shot. This is a very common problem with these motors in the Passat and Audi A4...

I think what is happening is that these motors are running at higher than normal temps with the turbo through the oil passages. The oil passages build up with sludge which restricts the flow even further and even more heat builds up. The fine screen on the oil pump pickup also clogs further...

No water leak. These motors have been going at 30-40K. Mine went at 130K with Mobil 1 oil changes every 5K rural highway driving only. People racing these motors have noticed this as well. Seems to be a basic design problem with motor. VW NA refuses to pay most warrently claims on these motors...

Do any of you folks have any insight on this problem with the VW 1.8 T motors in the Passat. I have a Passat with a blown motor due to engine sludge build up. I think that the oil capacity is too small for this motor. Only 4 quarts and that the oil lines and screen filter are too small.
