Not to scare you but on piston cars i know thats a sign meaning your engines about to blow (head gasket or related parts). It means you have excessive blowby gas.

On a turbo car, proper functioning of the PCV system is even more important than in a NA car, due to the positive pressure in the intake during boost. A bad check valve, for instance, can cause crankcase pressurization, and blow out seals, not just the dipstick.

I have had 1st-hand experience with this problem on my wife's 1.8T Passat.
