Stan 24v 0 Posted October 13, 2005 Ok here goes. My mate has an A6 1.8T and has had an oil leak. He had the rocker cover gasket changed a few months back. The garage (VW Sepcialists) told him that the engine is prone the the rocker cover warping due to the heat from the manifold and Turbo, and that this can cause the leak, and that this is a COMMON problem. The engine code is APU. Does anyone know anything about this COMMON problem? cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samm_cvr6 0 Posted October 14, 2005 Oil can easily leak from the rocker gasket, but how many miles has the car done? it could be something more serious, ie valve seals or even head gasket? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
