Oil leak in vicinity of intercooler charge pipe

quattrogmbh · 07-02-2009, 09:45 AM

Has anyone else seen evidence of an oil leak in the vicinity of the intercooler charge pipe? I see a thin film of oil on the belly pan along with a small trace running down the charge pipe

This is on a 335d

Thanks in Advance.

Well at least you don't have a permeable block.

The leak is almost certainly the red flexi vacuum hose. Contact member "Jude1" for more details, as he was the one who researched and found the solution.
