Scott,

The oil leak you had, could you tell me if the symptoms were the same as
mine??  Leaks almost entirely when driving, only residual drips when
parked from where extra oil is just sitting from being sprayed while
driving.  Loses about a quart every 100 miles.  Drips come from middle
of the back of the engine.  I've had the dealer (who's technical ability
I question) tell me it was one of the oil pressure sensors while
another, non-vw, mechanic tell me it looked like it was coming from
crankshaft.  I've tried cleaning the engine so that I could more clearly
see where the oil comes from but haven't been able to as of yet.  It's
definately coming from the rear area tho.

Thanks,
Tonya
