DFI engine issue?

I was following that thread at rennlist, and unfortunetly I think our DFI engines might be affected also. It looks to follow the general design of a DFI engine, no matter what car manufactuer it is. There are reports from Audi having this problem.
Looks like I wont be affected, as my car is a 36k lease....

this is getting scarry. does it have to do with the other thread where the 09 C2S is puffing too much soot from the tail pipes?
maybe good to skip the first year technology and go for a 10 model?

food for though indeed. i know the 05 vette had a ton of issues that were fixed for 06 and a few were fixed in 06 for 07...
but thats peanuts compared to a rarely used engine type that may have some unresolved design issues

I'm curious to see what PAG is doing about this as apparently this is rampant across all gasoline DFI engines. There are several solutions.
Also... owners aware of this should avoid short trips and should change oil far more frequently than recommended (maybe 5k miles or even less) and perhaps use an appropriate oil additive.
