Cabby Oil Leak
Oh dear! Our gti cabby has an oil leak coming from the dipstick guide rod where it goes into the block - any suggestions as we really need her running at the minute!

Yes, but it's a bit of a bodge.
I once stopped one of my fuel pipes from spirting petrol in the engine bay, I needed to get home and it was dark, so what I did was clean up the area with a rag and then put a good amount of exhaust paste around the pipe (as much as I could) it stopped the petrol instantly, infact I had left the paste on for 2 days and had to chisel it off in the end!
Good luck
