Default A6 WATERLEAK

I have a 2000 A6 that has a water leak under the car near the firewall. I have heard there is a coupling (plastic pipe) which has an o-ring which is notorious for leaking. I also heard that there is a guy that manufactures a replacement part that is bolstered to not leak.

Not aware of the O ring thing. There are four other common leaks. The condenser drain for the A/C, the cabin air filter, the sunroof drain, and the windshield cowl. All are covered at length if you search old posts.

You said water leak so I assumed rain water. You meant coolant. Disregard my previous post.
