It leaks a bout a teaspoon when parked in garage over might if driven then parked up for over 14 hours. Would you say that's a small leak?

Also whats the best one to get and where from?
Read somewhere online it can make all your seals go hard and fail but not sure if it's true.

It makes the seals go soft and bloat out.
You could give it go, if it doesn't work then you'll have to replace the seal, or just put up with it.
I think wynn's do one that i've used before.

does anybody no if it will damage any of my other seals thought?

No it will be fine.

No it will be fine.

But all your really doing is putting off the job  better to bite the bullet and replace the seal.

[stainesy]

Yeah I will be doing the job once I have the money but that won't be for a wile.

[AudiA8Quattro]

It won't do any harm put it that way.
