So driving home, stuck in traffic going like 5mph and go to accelerate just a bit and pop, hear something. Then I see low oil pressure stop. Literally construction all around me, but was a able to pull off at exit just ahead while in limo mode. Turn it off and then back on and hear a pop noise every few seconds intermittently. Turn it off and look and see 8” round puddle of oil directly below the front of the engine. Can’t see down far enough or up underneath, waiting now for a tow. Any ideas what it could be? Thought oil pump chain but why would oil be external? Seems like that would be contained? It’s a BHW 2.0 tdi Passat sedan 2005. Any tips are greatly appreciated. Can’t wait to get this puppy jacked up and see what wrong. Hopi g it just like a blown line or something hit doubt its that easy.
