leak

Hi guys, I have water getting in the back of the car, sometimes across both rear foot wells and sometimes just the passenger side rear footwell. I took it into a garage to get looked at and the mechanic said he couldn't find where it was getting in ( he put the hose over it etc he told me)...

Chaps and Chap-esses, Today I noticed my oil level had dropped quite far in the past week so I went on the hunt for the cause! I have found that the area/pipework under the EGR is covered in oil, before I start taking my engine bay to bits is there anything located in that area that may be...

Had my car serviced today and the mechanic noticed an oil leak from what looks like a vacuum unit above the alternator right by the top of the engine. There was a small amount of oil around the pipes and some which had leaked onto the alternator. There is no warning lights etc. It wasnt at...

As the title asks, the usual leak I was in my boot this affo and noticed the carpet is damp on the O/S near the rear seat. The rear seat squab is also a little wet where it meets the boot carpet. No puddles etc. just damp. It smells of the strong screen wash that I use in the car. I did use the...

After a few hundred pounds of searching, and vagcom's, the problem has been found, The issue was after swapping the std DV for a recirc, the car was wheezing and didnt have alot of boost, Work this one out then,.............. 2 blades bent backwards on the turbo?? So now what...

I have a 2007 FR TDI which I've been having problems with. ( see my earlier thread "fr tdi over filled with oil") I was advised that I could possibly have a boost leak so I've tried a visual inspection of the pipework ( most of which is inaccessable to someone as untrained as me !!!), and I've...

Hello guys :) I went out with jamiebennett to do some logging tonight as my car doesn't feel as fast as it was before FMIC. You can check the logs here. http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showpost.php?p=2811089&postcount=60 Everything point to boost leak right? Is everything else...

I have had my car checked by 3 garages, they cannot locate any leaks, No pressure tests have been done, just visibly looking at the hoses, Leak started when I changed to an uprated recirc DV, A huge wheezing can now be heard with probs only 75% power.. Where should I be looking for leaks...

This might sound a bit weird but here goes; There is no boost leak or decrease in boost when booting it in any gear. There is no boost leak when slowly accelerating in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 5th I only start to feel boost leak when im accelerating in 4th which is strange. I have the...

My friend has a 5dr Mk2, which has a water leak somewhere. When I had a look at it, the water seems to be coming from the o/s/r area and trickling down into the wheel well. I think it might be the rear washer pipe, but where does this run exactly? Is it a black pipe?
