I hear ya about the Vag spec, as well as the Amsoil thing. I can only say that I've ran it for years, my brother as well and he's got 245k+ on his Jetta. But, the 2.0 PD is VERY sensitive to the proper spec. This didn't cause the issue with the bottom end giving out like this though, I agree with you. I don't know what it's issue is due to. I think the design is faulty. Bigger chain may have fixed it.
If his issue is cycling then it could be the motor mount. I had one on another car that you'd swear was an engine issue, internally. Ended up being the motor mount. Worth a shot?
