Unfortunately, I think the way to fix leaks is to replace whatever is
leaking... gasket(s), seals, etc.

There may be additives that claim to, or even can for a bit (like when
trying to sell a car?) slow or stop leaks by swelling seals, etc., but
do you really want to experiment with stuff like that in a fine Audi
engine?
