My warranty co. is dicking me around and I'm trying to save the shop some hassle by providing the warranty co. this info myself.

usualy no though, my 5 speed jeep leaks about a quart every 600 miles, clutch is fine,
audi might be set up differently, but i am pretty sure you would need to leak a **** load to damaage a clutch, i think the flywheel protects it, yes it could cause damage, but imo something else is probably wrong

huge leak to actually get oil into the flywheel and pressure plate area, its pretty sealed, however audi's might be more prone to seepage? beats me,
