Internal Oil Line: Notes

1998 Audi A4 Avant Quattro, AutomaticSECTION Notes
CAUTION: Faulty "O" rings on internal oil line allow ATF to enter differential. Differential then becomes overfilled and oil will seep out of breather holes of differential. If an oil line is removed, it should generally be replaced. Oil line should only be inserted using Fitting Tool (3381). Otherwise there is a danger of oil line becoming bent, which will cause leaks to occur.
