    Also check Valvecover Gasket

    Just sprang a leak about two weeks ago. +/- 14K miles. Small leak that dripped on the garage floor (no more than a 4"x6" stain), but the tech indicated that some of the dripping oil was caught by the floorpan. Not a major leak, either, and is something that they've seen before in the A6 4.2s. Part ordered and arrived. Scheduled for maintenance this week. Will follow up.
