Recently replaced the throttle cable on my late model A4
Had to remove the long bracket that holds the throttle cable to replace some
worn out frozen small bolts due to access
Notiiced a oil seepage from the hex bolts holes that attach the bracket to the block.
Ran the engine a few days go . Today noted a small puddle 1 or 2 ounces at the rear of the engine.
Did not check other than cleanup and no leaks were apparent.
Am wondering if the bolts did not seal properly after reinstall bracket
should I now put sealant on these bolts threads?
Launch coming up -only a few days away
Thoughts appreciated
Thanks
