Tell tale signs of a sludge/oil circulation problem. Top end noise is the first symptom to get because its last in line to get oil pumped to it. Dont drive it.How exactly did you do an oil pressure test, and what were the #'s at what rpms? Start getting all your oil change records together, contact local dealers and give them your VIN to see if they have oil change records if you/previous owner dont. Oil change records are going to be very important when you battle with Audi to replace your engine for little or no cost to you. Im affraid its probably too late for seafoam.
