Hi skoda octavia petrol owner

need help quickly. Have had a major oil leak. cooland was leaking out of coolant reservoir and had water pump replace. Oil leak which was nothing more than a drip has become a major one. Replace oil filter - no success. Replaced oil cooler - no success. Mechanic is now suggesting oil filter housing. Cany1 any solutions for me. The leak is coming from filter/cooler area.

oil filter housing is probly the problem but if its that bad a good mechanic should be able to see within seconds where its coming from :thumbup:

Replace oil filter - no success.

Double gasket on the oil filter maybe? Sometimes the gaskets stay on when the filter comes off and when you put the new one on it fails to seal properly
