The PCV hole is used for sucking a small amount of air allowing the diaphragm to push the spring underneath when under vacuum.
The same hole is used to expel that small amount of air when the diaphragm goes up when there is no vacuum pulling on it.

Here is my 3.2 sucking and expelling air through the barb/nipple/hole. It's a different design than the 3.6 but I guess operation is the same. Vacuum pulls the diaphragm down. No vacuum the spring pushes the diaphragm up.
A torn diaphragm will allow air to be sucked continuously under vacuum (idle) and will also be letting air out when not under vacuum (throttle).
And of course engine is going to be rough and you will have low oil pressure warnings and blown valve cover gasket and what not.

I guess this is what you were experiencing:

Thanks for the reply! Most of the 3.6's I've looked at have constant suction at idle, so I thought maybe I was wrong. This last guy even took his to a shop and the shop told him it was fine/nothing wrong. I spoke to the shop and he didn't exactly sound 100% confident. There was no rough idle, but I was sensing a slight tickover. I'm thinking there is a small hole.

 

When idle there shouldn't be any air sucked.

How the PCV valve works

Here is my teardown of the 3.2 pcv:

The air hole you see in the 3.2 pcv is between the diaphragm and the top. There is no outside air going through this hole to the intake. Only when the diaphragm is torn will air be sucked into the intake.

 

Awesome. Thanks. That's what I thought! I am really ticked at VW for not making a separate PCV Valve on the 3.6. It is ridiculous to have to remove the valve cover and everything around it for a PCV plunger.
