I had an oil leak on my mk5 a few years back after it'd been serviced by my local dealer, turns out they'd threaded the new sump plug when they put it in! Numpties! ::)

Cheers guys. Indeed, definitely a Friday afternoon car! So I'm thinking about what to order for delivery on a '14 plate  :grin:

I'd like a Mk7 or new S3 but I think I need to move away from Volkswagen and Audi as I haven't had the best experience with my last 2 cars lol.

Just took the car in. They said the sump has corroded around the plug which is letting the oil seep out. The car is only just over a year old.
