Title: Gearbox oil leaking from breather pipe?
Post by: Scottie-gti on 24 May 2024, 07:43

My 2018 gti pp looks like it’s chucking oil out of the little black breather pipe on top of the box? Has anyone had this or any experience of it?

I suspect that might be what I have, strange but possibly true..

Mine doesn’t always leak it’s only when I give it some I think ? It had a dsg gearbox service in 2022 before I had the car, I’m wondering if they’ve overfilled the fluid? The only thing I can think of to do is get the oil and filter changed and put to the correct levels and see if it still does it??
