sake Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Hello everybody! I have a big problem now with an oil leak. I don`t really know what the problem is. The engine sound is changed and there is some oil coming out from the part shown on the picture below. What is this part exactly for? Am I going to be able to drive approx. 5 km to the nearest car service center? http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/857/dsc06732f.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingeRS2K Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 That's not a oil leak, it's a PAS pipe so pas fluid leak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor2006 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Get some fluid to top it up, obviously in an ideal world you want a tow but you'll be fine unless you stop on the way and do an 8000 point turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sake Posted August 26, 2012 Author Share Posted August 26, 2012 Hello again! I just wanted to report The guys repaired the part for a couple of days. They told me that the same part, brand new, would cost me 180 euro and I would have to wait for about 2 weeks in order to be delivered from Germany. This is the cost only for the part itself. I don`t include the commission for the service. Now it`s fine, but the wheel is moving a bit harder. It`s a little bit annoying but I will get used to it most probably pretty soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
