Please Help? Smoke oil and leak
Hello Everyone,
I have an oil leak on my 2003 Audi 3.0L V6.
I have done some research of what the problem seems to be like, but i am confused on how to take this job, since all of the write up seem to be made only for different models as 2.7. or 1.8L.
My question: I can replace the gasket myself, but does the 3.0 have a cam tensioner gasket or do i need to replace the camshaft seals?
Im not sure which one is it. Please let me know.
Please forgive me as I just bought this car not long ago, and I am learning a few things about it.

Best help you can get is from a Bentley manual for your car.

The other Way is simply to take the car to a good independent service shop and have the leak fixed.
