Re: 4-cylinder engine

   Here's another datapoint.  A past colleague had a scirrocco as his foul weather 
   car.  At 155,000 he removed the head (don't remember why) and said that the 
   cross hatching on the cylinder walls was distinct and fresh, looking for all 
   the world like it just came out of the factory.

Sounds like a bug to me - the walls should be polished to a mirror-like
finish after the first thousand or so miles . . . else the rings are not
seated!
