i use the Elf Excellium DID 505.01-spec 5W40 in my non pd-tdi. no problems either.
Pros: no problems
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Used the rotella for the first 90,000. Switched to AMSOIL so I can change the oil half as often. I'm good with either one. The car has 146,000 and runs as strong as ever.
Pros: change oil half as often, car runs strong
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 90123 km
if you have a 98 VR6, i know for a fact you would be needing a ZF type. The ZF type can be identified by the steering racks housing body. ZF has a waffle pattern and is made out of Aluminum.
Pros: ZF has waffle pattern

I have used Rotella full synthetic 5w40 from day 1. No complaints. I work for an oil distribution company, and get to ask people questions that have been in the business before I was born. Eveyone of them says the same thing. Shell has forgotten more then the others will ever know.
Pros: no complaints, strong brand reputation

basically the dirtier a paper filter gets the less it flows...not true for K&N
Pros: flow does not decrease
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
the paper filter is better for maybe the first 500 miles, after that the K&N breathes better and does not lose its air flow/filtration over time
Pros: breathes better, doesn't lose airflow

Pros: kicks ass

They have 2 electrode and yttrium content with copper core. First, the car idle better now than with USED NGK 3 prong spark plug.The idle is lower at 800rpm(new spark plu gap) compared to 920 with NGK (bigger gap) The stock spark plugs were hafl used, white-black color but with some yellow tiny dots on electrode surface whats this ???? I went for a run and these spark plug are not made for high rpm use.. The engine noise is metallic above 4k and it doesnt pull like used but in shape NGK plugs. The spark plug gap is too small I think. I will check my mpg and report this later.
Pros: better idle, lower idle
Cons: not for high rpm, metallic engine noise, less pull

I put T1S's on my 96 GTI last spring (on SSR Comps), and by October (maybe 7-8000 miles later) they developed a really irritating humming sound -- this despite being well balanced, inflated properly and cared for (no curb jumping, pothole hitting or other abuse). Couldn't see any evidence of cupping or unusual wear, but they just got annoyingly loud. Nothing turning up the radio couldn't drown out though.
Cons: irritating humming sound
