 and the temperature outside is cool/cold, as after about 5 minutes of
 HARD driving, the noise disappears.  A Scirocco enthusiast on base told
 me my oil tap might be bad.  What the hell is that (he never

You might need new valve lifters.  If you have it done, get a euro intake cam
to throw in while your in there.  It requires no extra labor.  You'll also
need a timing belt.
