Hello,
I have an Audi A4 Avant 2009 SE 143bhp.
I just went to a local garage (long story) and they found an oil leak (see images). They said they need to remove that unit, to clean it and then we take it from there, perhaps replace the gasket. Around 2h labour they asked.
I had to refuse because they were unable to tell me precisely what that component is called and how bad is that leak, how does affect the engine, what can happen if not fixed etc. They seemed they don't know what they do.
Also, there is a large black hose (1st image) running out of this compenent. They removed it and I could see oil inside.
Is anyone able to recognize it and to advice what the problem is?
Thank you,
George
