2003 Jetta TDI Wagon, approximately 150,000 miles.
I've had an oil leak for about a year now. I've had two mechanics look at it and they can't find the source. The mechanic who is looking at it not is stumped. He says he can see the oil running down the back of the engine, and oil seems to be coming from the intake manifold and exhaust manifold bolt (I may not be translating this correctly). He said he can't make out where that oil would be coming from. FYI, he is not a TDI mechanic. He is a close friend who works out of his house, and I left the car with him about a month ago so he can get to the bottom of this. Before that I took the car to one of our gurus who also couldn't figure it out.
Any thoughts?
