1.9 TDI Oil return pipe leaking

[ruffrida]

Afternoon All,

Noticed a bit of an oil leak the other day (left the under tray for a day).

On further inspection it is coming from the oil return pipe at the engine end between the pipe and the block, so not the pipe its self.

I am going to be doing an oil change at the weekend, but just wanted to know if this could be a dodgy washer or is it worth replacing the whole pipe?

And does anyone have any diagrams or know where i can get one from, just to make sure everything is as it should be once removed?

Cheers

Sounds like the copper washers are weeping a little, if it was me I'd get a pair of washers and a new banjo bolt from TPS and replace it

Just found this - Vehicle- spare parts for AUDI Audi A3/S3/Sportback/qu. 2000 Двигатель, Сцепление Турбонагнетатель__Выпускной коллектор__ - Catalog of vehicle spare parts and prices on-line

Which shows the 2 copper washers you mention Phil, will get me a new bolt and washers and get done whilst i am doing the oil change, nice 1
