oil leak

Hi All Haven't posted for a while, the car has been running well now even at 400k miles. I've had a turbo 'whistling' sound for a while but that seems to have gone away with the appearance of a significant oil leak. Today I finally got around to jacking the car up and diagnosing the leak. It...

Hi, I've been having to top up oil fairly regularly on my 2.0tfsi A3 for about a year now and I know they are oil guzzlers. However, it has been becoming more and more frequent in recent months with the low oil light coming on. My local garage cleaned off the bottom of the sump, had me drive...

Car is a 2.0 Tdi CAGA Engine code SInce last weekend I have had a really bad oil leak, the oil seems coming from the bottom end of the engine, the top end is bone dry. There doesn't seem to be any leaking from the sump. The issue occurs once the car is up to temperature and the oil pressure...

Hello everyone I'm knew to this forum so first I'd like to greet all of you. I drive a 1.9 tdi a3, year 2007. It developed an oil leak since 5 months ago and I still haven't been able to resolve so I need your help because I'm going mad and lost all hope. It's leaking from somewhere onto the...

Can an engine oil leak be associated with DPF problems as I’ve had my A3 2.0 DPF regen done at Halfords and the DPF light came on 2 days after the treatment and they also mentioned I’ve got an engine oil leak is that what could be giving me DPF problems?

Hi guys, I was due to pick-up my 2007 A4 cabriolet T S line 1.8t yesterday from a reputable used Audi dealer. When I test drove the car, I noticed a few things that needed attention and the dealer informed me he would resolve the majority of them. One of the issues identified was a small oil...

Hello all, New member here! I’ve been looking for a while and found a 2010 Audi A5 2.0 TFSI Q in my budget with the exact specifications I want. 1 owner, excellent milage and great condition. Full Audi SH apart from the last service done by the dealer. I paid for an AA inspection which found...

Hiya, I have a 2.0 BMN Quattro 2008 which is losing oil over time (and seems to have started losing coolant too) There's oil visible around what appears to be some sort of actuator, near the timing belt region, a little on the alternator too. Any ideas on what could be leaking as I'm clueless...

Hi All, I've got a small leak under the bonet just in front of the wheels. It apears to be water but with small amount of oil in it, but it mainly looks like water but smells oily. Any ideas? I've getting it serviced Monday, just want them to check this.

Hello so my 2006 A3 2.0TfSi on throttle sounds like a wasps (I guess) sound coming from the turbo , is that a normal noise or ? And I have noticed that oil is dripping somewhere down the turbo side, do we think that could be a possible cause ? I have uploaded a video, but it’s not really...

So my 2005 A3 8P 2.0TDI has got a oil leak, I bought the car for £600 knowing of a slight drip and I mean slight as a generous use of the word, it dripped maybe four droplets in a hour of running. Since then its now getting abit more serious and I can't see where the oil is coming from, however...

I recently did an oil change (myself) and since there seems to be a leak from somewhere near the filter housing. Although the housing itself seems dry, most of the oil is dripping off of what I think is the secondary water pump? It was especially soaked in oil, under the rubber bushing that...

Hello No other signs of oil leak (drips on ground, smoke,smells etc.) See attached image of Rocker Cover: 09/1.8TFSI(160)/134kMiles

I noticed the other day that there were a few drops of oil on the floor, and checking it, it looks like the sump is leaking on the front right corner. Is this a common issue and can it be done in situ? Many thanks Andy

My 1.9TDI PD 130 has a small oil leak which drips below the front right corner of the car, where the intercooler is. It's a pretty small leak. Any ideas about the cause? Is this the turbo leaking oil?

Hi. I did about 12000 miles or so this year, and within that mileage which took me around 11 month to rack up, the oil light came on to let me know it needed topping up. I had to put about 1.5 litres in to top it up. I was wondering what you guys are experiencing with these engines. I've never...
