[V8] leaking

[32vquattro]

It would be best to start with a clean motor when looking for oil leaks. 
just make sure you have your tool box with you if you decide to presure wash 
it away from home (learned this the hard way couple of weeks ago, but thats 
another story) Seriously,  degrease the back of the motor and be prepaired 
to dry out the dizzy's. then look for your oil leak. Als try retorquing your 
head bolts. Al
