hi all
help needed, i keep getting oil in my inter cooller hoses,i have got a3 2.0 tdi 2007 and after getting my car back from audi for my service they told me i have got leaking oil lines so i have had a look and the only part that has got oil on is the 2 intercooler hoses under the car, i have taken them off and there is black oil inside so i have cleaned them out and refitted.
The car has done 95000 miles and i last cleaned the hoses out 15000 miles ago,is this normal or time to get a new car.
 
it is thick black on the out side where the oil has been building up and when i took the hose off i got about table spoon worth,
 
It's normal mate. Unless there's sh*t loads don't worry

One table spoon is nothing. There will be some small amounts of oil in all turbo charged engine I/C hoses
