Hi all.

Noticed the other day when fiddling that I have a slight oil leak from the PCV intake on the intake manifold. It's not major, but some oil is dripping down onto the inlet manifold.

I guess I have damaged a gasket or something when fiddlign around there for my catch can. (currently returned to standard).

Dont suppose could throw up an ETKA diagram so I see what needs replacing?

Cant find part on VAG CAT.

Cheers

can you post a pic - - on tdi
s a small amount of oil in the intercooler system / pipes is normal - its a mist spray that builds up over time - this is along the pipe where the egr sits and to the intercooler

Finally, here are some pics.

I cleaned the area up but it has come back.

It is weeping from that round part that connects to the metal intake pipe, and also from the plastic adaptor part that pulls off.

Does anyone know how to replace the part that goes directly into the metal intake pipe or even just to remove it?

It never did this before. However I was fiddling in that area fitting a catcah can so I think I've damaged a seal or something

sorry - what car, engine and mileage - it doesn look like anything to be worried about but if you want to be 100% you should be able to pick up a replacemnet from gsf - they have access to the parts catalog and you can point it out to them - or get the part no off the pipe
