No reason to get paranoid over the sludge problem. This only happened to about 5 percent of the cars. Just have the valve cover checked and take it from there. If it's not clean under the cover or the PCV hoses are in bad shape then you'll need more investigation. Dropping and cleaning the oil pan can be done DIY but it is more of an advanced job. Only do this if you suspect problems. If you discover problems you'll need to determine if you can recovered or if you're over over the edge.
