    The real question is, was there any engine failures due to oil dilution? I searched hard, and I have not found any posts saying their engines are failing hard.

    In other words, there is no indication that 1.5T engine is unreliable DESPITE oil dilution issues.

      Not necessarily a reliability issue, more an issue with the engine having excessive wear due to reduced oil film strength.
