Oil Leak - help needed to ID leaking part

Featured Replies

Skoda Octavia 1.9TDI 2002

 

Have recently had oil dripping when parked - degreased engine and found that this part is leaking oil. Can someone ID the part and point me in the right direction for repair - ie: simple gasket / new unit??

 

Any help gratefully appreciated

Part number is handily marked right on the top there 038131501E.  

Probably a few knocking about in peoples garages looking for a new home after they've been deleted.

+1  that's your best bet   the tiny oil seal inside (cost 5p even at dealer prices :swear: )   is almost impossible to replace   Don't be tempted to block those holes,  you could go for a "Wingnut stealth pipe"  mod if your handy with a grinder and araldite :devil:

Many thanks - did not know that was a part number - I'll look for a replacement unit - but I am still totally in the dark about what the unit actually is?  EGR / ASV .. sorry means nothing!! Bit of a thicko when it comes to mechanics

Exhaust gas recirculation valve and anti shudder valve. It does two things. The EGR helps reduce emissions and the ASV closes when you turn the engine off to help stop the engine.
