They aren't what they make out are they,1.8t owners are buying them but hardly any oil.

....You're missing my point (confirmed as bacillus has posted above): Less gunk is collected in colder weather conditions.

10oz in ~2 months is a significant/substantial amount of fluid.

More moisture/gunk is collected in colder months.

At my 100,000 mile service in April 2012 the valve stems etc on my 2.T FSI were inspected and found to be surprisingly clean. It is thought to be a result of running a catch tank. The gunk I have removed is a bit scary!

It takes me about 20 minutes max to disassemble, empty, and re install. I usually remove the tank from the hoses as well.
