I recently came on some Euro website (I think it was a SEAT site) across the information that no matter whether or not a VW diesel engine is equipped for Long Life Service, an oil change is required every 7500 km (ca 5k mi), if diesel fuel with higher than Euro standard sulfur content is used. I don't know how much sulfur is allowed in Western Europe, but chances are that the diesel fuel in many countries does not meet the requirements. This may well affect those of you in the US who own VW diesel engines, and you may want to take this info under consideration when planning your oil change intervals.
