The TDI engine is a very different beast. Max oil temps were about 190F, so not really much of a heat load. I assure you, MANY TDI owners regularly drive 20,000 mile oil change intervals on good quality oil. Heck, the big rigs do 50,000 - 1,000,000 OCIs. Diesel is just different.
So anyway, I'm not saying I will definately go out to 20,000. I'm gonna see what things look like. I just got this car and I'm pretty unhappy that the oil is looking as dirty as it does after 2000 miles. I'm uncomfortable with even the 5,000 mile OCI if my oil is gonna look the way it does now. Hence the need for bypass.
