For the yellow sludge, sounds like you need to take your car for a longer drive occasionally, especially as it get's colder. Alternatively, an "Italian tune-up" might also help, if you usually drive gently. I haven't seen that on our 14, but it get's lot's of highway miles. I think 3K is short, but that's your choice. I had UOA done on Amsoil OE 5w-30 synthetic after 5K (6K total miles) and it was fine.
I find on oil changes to get top of the stick full I add 3.3 liters. But, I'm going to a bigger filter so that is going to change. The stick and service manual don't seem to agree with each other.
