DSG Oil Leak ?

[themanwithnoaim]

Anybody had a oil leak on their DSG

 

Mine had its 3rd service last week & they've noticed a leak on the back of the DSG, they think it might be just a seal.

 

Dunno does the DQ381 have any history of being a bit leaky ?

 

vRS245 MY18 with 27-1/2k miles lightly tuned, often ragged but, never from cold

 

TIA

Nope hadn't seen that however, I'm not running anywhere near that kinda power so, I'd hope it's not relevant although, that's for the link

False alarm, after a clean up of the affected area and a quick 30 minute drive, no new oil leakage. The Master Tech believes some high temperature/pressure (due to excessive exuberance) may have cause a slight weep.

Really?   That is hopeful thinking. 

 Is there to be 'Exuberant driving no more'? Never a wee thrash up to 70 mph. Never a run on a Dyno.

At least you will have the issue logged while the car is under warranty.

We all leak a bit as we get older, its just a question of where from.
