I use a "Special tool" called coat hanger on all the newer Saabs to check for sludge when doing an oil change.
Bent as a little hook I insert it through the oil drain hole and get it out in the corners and on top of the oil pickup strainer where I know I would find sludge if present.
It works very well.
Another thing I highly recommend is to do a "hot oil" oil change.
As soon as the customer comes in I try to get the car up in the air and drain the oil while it's still piping hot. That way the oil will draw small particles with it when gushing out of the engine.
