Thanks for posting. Worked on my 2010

Where did you get your copper washers?

My daughter's 2013 TDI has a leak on the left rear of the block as you are looking at it from the front. Are these lines on that side? Thank you very much

Might be easier just to replace the housing than trying to find the leak over and over. About 100 bucks on Amazon.

2018 with 86K on it. Same situation- filter change last done @ 80K. Moved the truck last night and found a big dried puddle of diesel in my shop (zero leaks for the past 6K). Crawled underneath and front dif completely wet. Popped the hood and the filter housing was completely soaked. Stupid plastic...probably cracked. Another win for CHYNA. Time to hit the aftermarkets.

Thanks for your video.... my 2014 passat tdi had the same problem and I didn't know how to fix it... it was very useful thanks

My cap and housing cracked. And I used a torque wrench to tighten it to spec. So I’m trying to find a good replacement that’s not plastic. :-(

Looks like it isn't tight enough I see a gap

Ouch

Old o ring is still on it mine did it

Bad o ring

Oil the o ring and run a pick along it so it sits good in its place.

Bad seal

Check the o-ring.

Just had this problem this past Monday. It was my o-ring and I have similar mileage on my Ram as well.

If it’s from the top of the filter housing it is likely an O ring issue if it’s coming from the lower area of housing it’s likely your drain pitcock assembly

The reservoir has a floating magnet in it, that magnet is what completes the circuit via a magnetic field around the sensor when it’s in the proper position. The sensor goes up inside a plastic tube built into the reservoir and is kept separate from the coolant so it isn’t exposed to the coolant. The magnet has a hole in the center of it like a donut and goes around the plastic tube and moves up and down in accordance with the coolant level. Hope that makes sense.

Had this problem. My old o ring was inside and I put a new one on and it wasn’t closed right 😅 figured it out after 4 tries.

Not tightened down enough

I just broke my cap....whole lot of fun

Yep, mine went at 17,250 miles.

I bought an aluminum cap for mine. Much easier to screw in and out.

No but the elbow behind it to the fuel line is leaking. Anyone know how to replace or the name?

I’m having this problem to

O ring

Ring is pinched buddy

Happened to me a couple times. Brand new O ring did nit seal correctly and I had to keep the old one. Hope your issue is that simple.

Mine just started doing this as well. 2014 127k

Use motor oil on the threads and o ring before putting the cap on. The oil lubricates the treads and ring to help it seal and spin on better

O ring sits n the bottom of the bowl threads not the cap. When I first did mine it had the same issue and found out the o ring doesn’t go into that slot on the cap. It actually sits on the bowl at the bottom of threads
