Hi, I'm after some information/advice for the problem below if anyone out there can help please?
Car is a 2001 A4 B6 2.5tdi quattro sport.
I recently had an oil leak from the (looking from the front) left hand rocker cover seal/gasket and I had it replaced at the same time as the cambelt/water pump/ thermostat etc was replaced. That has cured the issue but I have now noticed an oil leak from one of the rubber grommets that seals the injector (L/H side at the back). Apparently these grommets are not available from Audi and a new rocker cover is needed, but I've found some replacement grommets on Fleabay from Germany that look decent enough so I'll give them a go. I have no issue doing the job but I'm not sure about reconnecting the injectors and associated pipe work so have a few questions.
1. will the injectors be pressurized and if so how do I relieve the pressure, is it by simply undoing the fuel line to the injector?
2. once I've reconnected all the pipework etc, does the fuel system need to bled or will it just work again after a few cranks of the engine.
3. I've read that the crankcase breather filter can cause leaks from the grommets, if this is the case does anyone have a guide/advice to changing crankcase breather filter on a 2.5tdi AKE engine?
Thanks in advance
