  I believe it was Scott that found out (got scolded) that if 
you drive your "early" VW diesel too easily though, your valve 
will gunk up on the backsides with carbon deposits.  In other 
words, drive it spriitedly once in a while and enjoy.  :-)
  Our service mgr. alway said the ones that were driven harder 
had less problems and ran better than the easy driven cars.  He 
never knew just why but then they weren't all that old at that 
time either.
