If Your A4 Is At An Angle

You may have a slight leak at the front seal of the engine. The oil picks up dust and so on as it slowly runs over the pan. That is what mine does. I clean it up a couple times a year otherwise ignore it. I figure the oil protects the pan from rusting. There is not enough oil for me to worry about - yet that is.
I would clean it up and monitor the situation for a while.
