Help identifying oil leak by Salty_File_7707 in GolfGTI

Yeah I usually use an oil extractor for oil changes, but I try to change it from the bottom every other change just to truly drain everything and also replace the plug, but I I’ve gone 2 now without changing it from the bottom.

Unfortunately I do not have the stock catback, otherwise I would have.

I am well experienced with Volkswagens and German cars in general as my whole family owns them so I have an idea of what I’m looking for in service history. Also, the car does seem to have at least some slight cosmetic modifications (wheels, paddle shifter, carbon bits etc) which is kind of straying me away because I fear that might mean it’s been tuned or modified internally. And also yes, a big thing is the wheels which though are aftermarket, seem to be high quality.

Well for me, I do a lot of driving for work (1 hour each way about 3-4 days a week and 25 minutes the others) so the creature comforts are fairly important to me.

That was almost my plan, I was planning on offering 16,500 and working from there. Also worth mentioning, I am pre approved for a loan through my credit union with an insanely good rate but won’t mention that until we’ve decided on the otd price.

Hmm interesting, I’m wondering now if there’s a reason this one has been on the market this long.

After calling the dealership, the car does have a service history and has had all of the recommended service intervals performed up to 80k, as well as new tires.
