Yeah, I can agree with that.  If it's already
leaking... as long as it doesn't somehow ruin the
core.  As far as Audi taking a bad rap, alot of this
stuff is outsourced and that kind of have to trust
these 3rd parties to engineer and manufacture a
quality product.  I think they probably should have
weilded a bigger stick on some of their suppliers, but
their in house stuff is pretty stout.  ZF makes the
hydraulic stuff and they got hosed/snowed by GM on
that bullsh*t climate control system GM knew they
hadn't debugged yet.  Audi helped unf*ck that goat.  I
really feel like they're more a victim of the people
they trusted to help them build a quality car.  Yes
they do have some of the resonsiblity/blame, but I
don't put it all on their head.

I've posted about Trans X in the past, as well as
recommending it to <BR>
Audi specialists around here. You can get a power
steering fluid and <BR>
stop leak (says approved for Audi), or if it's hard to
get (like my <BR>
situation), buy the Trans X A.T. sealer and dump some
in. <BR>
<BR>
I had a rack in my old 5 ktq that was literally
dripping all over. <BR>
Put the stuff in and a few weeks later when I had the
tranny pulled, <BR>
there was no sign of any leakage, ever. Everything was
dusty.<BR>
<BR>
My opinion is if you have to replace components due to
leakage, you <BR>
could hardly do any worse than what Audi engineering
did to them in <BR>
the first place. <BR>
