> I am changing the crank seal on my 5TQ (for the second time!). The first
replacement a month ago leaks more than it did before.
The main reason new crank and cam seals leak is that they weren't oiled
before installation. Even Audi has made this mistake - a number of
MB-engined ur-quattros were recalled to have the rear crank seal replaced.
Soak in oil before installation.
