    Oil Leak on TDi 130

    EGR valves leaking oil are a very common fault. I usually replace them, + if in warranty can be replaced under warranty. It could also be the boost hose going into the egr causing the leak.

    multitronic multitrouble

    Multitronic CVT boxes are notorious for giving trouble. The main causes are sticking valve bodys, and wear in the clutch plates within the input shaft. The main problems noticed by the driver will be either delays in selecting / changing gear or a juddering when accellerating / decellerating.
