Hello,
Yes, got a tiny bit of that recently.

Had a 50k service in December, then little use for 6 weeks, then a good 450 mile North Wales thrashing over a weekend after which there was a hint of sludge but not much at all. Dealer's oil could have come from a 250 litre drum which had some condensation in it..

Had this a bit in my B6 S4 Avant as well a few years ago, so not concerned.

I wiped the filler cap and checked it again the next week after 100 miles or so and no more sludge...

Nothing like that on my pristine example...
