DSG Oil Leak....

I've got a very minor one of about 5 ml in one week <--- I collected in a white plastic tub while in my garage. I always keep some brown cardboard on the floor beneath the engine so I can spot any leaks.

She's booked into my VW dealer's next week for a look. We both feel fairly certain it's DSG oil also from its position near 'axle' on passenger side.

She had a DSG service not long ago and has done 94k miles from new.

Any info or experience of same?

Driveshaft oil seal?

Mine is leaking, passenger side booked in for repair.

My vote would be driveshaft oil seal too. Certainly a cheap place to start. I presume it's not the filter housing leaking (on top of the gearbox), and the oil running down the back of the box?

Driveshaft oil seal is what my VW dealer's workshop manager thought as a possibility too.

I'll obviously post here what it turns out to be.  :happy2:
