Hello,

Well, yeah. It’s my first Audi and I just found out it’s leaking a bit of oil. I attached some photos of it - does anyone know or seen similar issue?

thanks in advance.

It doesn't look new. So then the first question is whether there is any warranty on it? No car should be leaking oil.

You may need in the future a new gasket kit, I let mine to have tears but it does not complain, i.e. no faults. Just have to add a bit of oil before service time. Adding a new gasket kit is a pain.

What I did was to purchase a used turbocharger at a very good condition comes with latest part number (s suffix) just in case mine fails. Will have to order the gasket kit in order to avoid an expensive dealer visit in the future.

I have no warranty.

My engine seals also cry (small leak), possibly because oil consumption stage 2 was performed to my car.

Unfortunately I am out of warranty as it’s 2013 model. It doesn’t look so serious in real - my car has 173000 km mileage - and it’s the only one place where it leaks. The area covered in oil is maybe 1x1 cm, barely noticeable. I would like to fix it ASAP - just to get it out of my head.

I will definitively buy a new gasket kit - but at least for now, it’s only one leak I found - and I spent significant amount of time finding any

Thank you.

I cleaned Ned it a little bit and it doesn’t seem to be a screw at all (photos attached). For me it’s more like a valve.

I found a better image what part it is - does anyone know what it is?

I would think that mine leaks oil from this area.
