VW 2.5 5cyl.
It’s not the best pic. I can probably get better pics tomorrow since I’m still in the middle of replacing the oil filter adapter.
All of the intake valve have deposits on them. They are super hard like carbon kinda in between oil and carbon consistency. The intake runners near the head also have the same deposits.
Since I run quality fuel like Mobil and Shell, I don’t get why this would be a thing since it’s port injection.
I use Castro 0w40 VW 502.00 spec oil OEM MANN filter, 10k OCI as per VW. I thought this oil had low SAP, which is why I’m confused about the amount of deposits.
I commute 140 miles a day 5 days a week. I’ve put 45,000 miles on this motor since I bough it.
