allroad fuel filter leak/ fitting leak

[iandonovan]

Hey guys,

So my AR has been having trouble starting, so I figured new filter. I replaced the filter and it's actually leaking still. Not sure if it's the banjo bolt or fitting. But I can see the fitting get soaked with gas then it leaks from the fitting. Has anyone ever had to replace that before? Or do you guys think it's possibly something else?

Thanks

I used a wix filter and it did the same thing. I went OEM from ECS TUNING and it worked the first time..I have a 99 a6 2.8 but I think it's the Same setup. Also make sure u use crush washers once

You must use new crush washers and torque to proper spec.
