Aw11 Supercharger gearbox leak

**ohms** · 23-11-2006, 04:32 PM

Hi All,

Just noticed the check gear box oil level indicator on the dash has started coming on, so after a bit of investigation it would appear that the casr has developed a leak from the side of the gearbox, or more specifically where the drivers side driveshaft enters the gearbox. I have no manuals but am assuming that there's some sort of rubber o ring sealing inside there. Only bought the car yesterday, but the previous owner said it needed a cv boot for the roadworthy, so whoever did the work has obviously done something wrong. Can somebody in the know provide details of whatever part I'm likely to need or better still any schematics of this area of the tranny

Also, what gearbox oil does everyone recomend.

Thanks
Chaps

You will definately need a new O ring for that driveshaft. it might even need a speedy seal over the shaft to get a proper seal.

Get some Castrol Syntrax gearbox oil, takes 3.2-4 Litres.
