The problem caused by oil leakage in Audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf and Passat 1.6 and 2.0 TDI.

Model: Audi Audi Various
Part: Timing belt

In this video we see the problem that can be caused by the loss of oil coming from the crankshaft oil seal on Audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf and Passat; the oil ends up on the timing belt: two things that do not get along very well. If when we go to do the service we see oil stains in the point that the youtuber shows us, then we must intervene quickly, because if the oil ends up on the timing belt, it will inevitably break. The belt must be changed anyway, but further and very serious damage to the engine will be avoided.
