alien-planet Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I replaced my gearbox clutch for a new one a fraternity it failed to disengage, it works fine after repair but it seems there is oil burning on the excaust I smell it after driving 15 mins , is this leaking or is it they replaced the clutch but failed to clean up the spillage from before the repair which I suspect.

Sandals Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 It should burn off after a few days... but i would maybe have a look, could be your rocker cover gasket leaking. They are prone to going, especially on the drivers side due to heat from the exhaust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 If they have tilted the box to remove it it could have just leaked out where the propshaft goes into it, or the seal has gone, (mine did the same after new clutch) A new seal is only 8 quid and a 20 min job, I'd wipe the oil off the exhaust and see of it comes back, Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stants Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 You need to remove the propshaft pull old seal replace with new one and put prop back in, Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Find the leak or fresh oil, stick your finger in it and give that a sniff. Determine if it's engine or gearbox oil. Where is the leak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alien-planet Posted September 3, 2016 Author Share Posted September 3, 2016 Leakage is near the gearbox no where near the engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
