Jonny c Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Hi all, I'm new here, I have a query that I'm hoping someone else has encountered. I recently bought an 11 plate a3 for doing motor way miles as I know they are economical, the trader sold me the car and the very next day I had oil in my collant, so I had a chat with him and he's willing to come and collect, but Ideally I want to repair it, ive changed the oil cooler, flushed the coolant system and done an oil change , all went well, then today again, oil in the coolant, it drives perfect , no over heating, no loss of power ( driven 200 miles with this issue), no gasket gunk on filler cap and my mechanic says i ts definitely not the head gasket, any ideas please before I start throwing money at it....return it ? or is there something simple I'm missing ? Internet says its a seal but dont know where to start. Thanks
Steve Q Posted January 20 Posted January 20 On the A6 C5 the egr cooler has been known to put oil into the coolant system. I appreciate its a different engine though. As you bought it ROM a dealer within 30 days you're entitled to a full refund.
cliffcoggin Posted January 21 Posted January 21 Why would you want the the time and expense of repairing it yourself when you are entitled to get the vendor to do it free? 1
