eLSD leak

Noticed some spots on my driveway near the rear of the car (8-12 inches in diameter). Took car to dealer. They are keeping the car (service backed up) won't get it until next week. Looks like the eLSD is leaking! They couldn't spot the exact problem. Will find out next week. Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks

Jack

Are the spots parallel to each other and to the rear axle? It could be from drains in the muffler.

This is more likely.....look under there and rub around under the muffler. There are little weep holes that will leak some nasty black oilsh water

Car on lift at dealer. Oil on eLSD. 8-12" diameter spots on driveway. Wish it was muffler. Then I could change the bearings.

Getting car back

Took 1LE to dealer before Memorial Day. It is ready today. I'll get it tomorrow.

If your eLSD has issues, expect to wait a while. I'll post the part number. I think it is cheap. You may want to stock on yourself, especially if you plan on keeping the car for a while...

FINALLY, baby's coming home
