"99 A8 4.2 oil smell on pass side
Hello: I have a 1999 audi A8 4.2 liter....173,000 miles....just completed the timing belt and everything that comes in the Blaufergnugen kit....including cam and crank seals, thermostat, both belts, water pump, etc. runs great. smelling oil after warm up...more prevalent on passenger side. Before I start digging around thought I'd try to get some ideas. We own a golf course in NW PA....winter is a great time to work on machinery....gotta fix this thing so we can start worjing on MOWERS!!!! thanks for any and all ideas, chpro

The cam seals aren't mentioned in this DIY, but all you have to do is use a pick to pry out the old one and tap in the new one.
