Where are you located? What are the emissions devices?
Normally I'd think of this as some sort of gross PCV valve failure. I
don't know whether the VW 16V employs a PVC system, and if so, in what
countries. Generally almost all modern (like under 15 years old) cars in
the USA utilize some kind of system by which crankcase gas pressure is
vented into the intake, and it might involve a filter or valve which is
intended to let the gases pass while keeping the oil in the
crankcase. Failure of this valve would result in oil in the intake.
YMMV. Where exactly was the oil?
