Hello i don't know what this is to do a search so i've taken a pic so someone can advise on leaking diesel i noticed the wet patch last week, and could this be a potential problem for my spluttering and difficult morning starts.

Well i received my new filter cleaned up all the surrounding areas and replaced my filter, did a purge and this is what its revealed.
Now how do i go about fixing this please, does it mean replacing the line or can you buy just the plug?

All sorted, i cut the plug off with the red rubber jacket as thats where the leak was, and replaced it with a short pieces of fuel line.
Went out for a nice drive and all is well..

Sorted. Sometimes the easiest and most obvious fix is the best and cheapest. Try doing that on a top end merc or bmw.

So very true, we have an audi as well and there is no way i would even think of doing anything to it...
