    Hi my A4 b7 2008 2.0tdi is leaking oil from the exhaust what might be the problem.n

    turbo oil return or supply line perhaps? also this is for "A4" or mkiv generation Volswagen jettas. that have the 1.9ALH or 1.9PD not audi A4s but your engine is simalar to the jetta mk5 mk6 mk7 2.0 tdi so you might have better luck posting there. or the vw passat tdi section
