apples Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Hi all, On my 1.9TDi i have a slight diesel leak at the fuel filter, is this a common fault? all the pipes seem to be on tight, so i'm thinking one of the hoses are split?

Mook Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 AFAIK, it's not a common problem. You'd best get it checked and fixed asap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris18 Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 i had a fuel leak on my 1.6 Mk4 it was on the fuel sender unit, the first thought wa that it was on a illy fitted filter but the filter was fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Apples, I had the same just after the last service. I found the it was the 2 "o" ring seals on the valve that clips into the top of the filter. Try replacing them first.
