Oil Filter ?

A4 TOURING · 17-09-11, 12:46 PM

Hi guys i have severe oil trickling out of what looks like the housing of the oil filter on my 1993 80 2.0 E. Can anyone identify the part number for me please. Dont want to spend a fortune on this baby not so early from purchasing it anyway. I am looking for the part that the oil filter screws into.

Regards

Roy

What are the letters of your engine number?

That looks like the sandwich oil cooler. It's a common fault and they're easily available

Mine come with a brand new oil cooler when bought earlier this year, the guy said symptoms where that of a head failure... hmm never figured that one out.

Could look similar - water in the oil.

bought a new one a couple of years back - about £25 iirc
Cannot remember if they come with two large-ish o ring gaskets, if not get them at the same time
Really easy to fit , think it was less than half an hour, total including clean up !
