    • @EuropeanAutoRepair

      It’s not likely a rear main seal at all. Very commonly misdiagnosed issue with those cars, more likely if it’s coming from the bellhousing area on the 3.0 supercharged engine it’s a oil filter housing assembly that’s leaking

I camt see from where on the other side. But it does look like it's got a spot just like this here. Would this also leak down the bell housing and drip down the opposite side as well? It started with a drip on the filter side, then this morn two spots one on each side. Under filter side. And direct opposite of filter side. Thanks so much

    Can anyone tell me if this could be the reason for the below symptom? When i drive the car for over an hour and when i stop at the light, engine stutters a little bit and the rpm meter fluctuates. It feels like the car will stop and the stuttering will increase the longer the engine is idling. There’s also lot of smoke even when the engine is idling As soon as i start driving again it’s all normal, just like a car in mint condition. No smoke, no issues. I stop the engine after driving for over an hour and start again, i have the push the gas so much for the engine to start running. If I leave the car overnight, and push the start button, boom…. Brand new audi! All these issues start only after driving for over 30 mins or an hour

    My service manual shows a baffle plate mounted between the engine head and the oil filter adapter. I don't seem to have that, but I am not the first person in there - a shop replaced this housing a few years ago and perhaps left it off? Can anyone provide some insight? By the way, the first replacement housing was a Febi that lasted about 3 years before starting to leak. I noticed the leak shortly after an oil change which seems to make sense after hearing your comments about applying tourque to remove the filter housing. I'm going with a replacement oil filter adapter off the dealer shelf.

    the PCV/breather on the 2.0 works in a very complicate way. you can not use aftermarket--totally agree. when the car is at idle there is negative pressure/vacuum at the intake and when the boost from the turbo is active around 2k rpms then there is positive pressure at the intake at which point the hose from the intake to the breather is closed off and the engine is vented through the other pipe of the breather which goes to the turbo suction line. therefore at any given rpm there is sufficient vacuum/negative pressure in the crankcase. Nice job. I just subscribed. We can all learn from each other.
