Oil leak between engine and trans
Sorry for the cross post but...
My 2009 A4 has developed a leak between the engine and trans. I have the 2.0L with the CVT transmission.
Is there any way to tell whether this is engine oil or CVT fluid? My understanding is that CVT fluid looks a lot like used motor oil after it's got a bunch of miles on it. The engine oil is in the acceptable range and I haven't noticed any loss on the stick but I obviously cannot check the trans fluid. There has been a good amount of oil left on the driveway, most of which was there before I last checked the level. I'm not driving the car until I can figure out what it is because while I can top off the engine oil I can not top off the CVT fluid. At least not very easily.
Thanks.
