    a6 tdi fuel filter leak

    guys,

    have a wierd leak on my audi - its been back to the garage once where it seems to stop for a week or two but it seems to be back again now

    The fuel filter is in the engine bay and effectively has a metal ditribution 'cap' which seems to be held on with a 10mm cap head bolt. It would seem to be leaking past this and effectively flooding over the top. Result is a very stinky engine bay and blower for the cabin too.

    Any ideads what would be causing this and why its appearing again after having replaced the filter already once post service?

    Cheers
    David
