In my experience the engines Ive owned that Ive taken apart to rebuild (VW Beetle and Bus) were just tanned a little inside the crankcase. No buildup, sludge etc at all. I changed the 2.5 quarts of oil every 2000 miles and commuted to work 30 miles away. I dont know what to make of sludge buildup in the engine. They claim to have changed the oil. ![]() Now that I drive my Yaris 3-4k miles a year with mostly 6 mile trips the oil comes out clean every six months...
