Default ECT Housing...

Car: 2002 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro MT5

I've had a small coolant leak for the past few weeks (Haven't been driving the car, so I didn't notice until I moved it), and I went and had it looked at. I'm told it has a leaking ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature) Housing, and it needs to be replaced... Anyone else had this problem? Can anyone tell me how to go about fixing it?

Thanks in advance.

Not sure if I'll be of any help here since I bet you already know this.

I just checked out my ECT sensor a couple of days ago. The following site had a DIY on swapping it out. Perhaps you just need a new O ring and not a "housing" (I am not sure what that means but I'm no mechanic).
