Make sure that the drain plug is threaded correctly and done up with the right amount of torque. Also, ensure that if there was a washer or gasket there that it was replaced.

hey,

not sure where your reverse light switch is on your box, but mine (MK 2001 N/A 2.8 diesel) had somehow managed to get a leak through the center of it, and oil was slowly coming out of it. $60 later and it was all fixed.
