Would be strange if the seals had gone already. Take it back get them to sort it. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer๐๐

Reduced engine power in April resulted in the SC water pump and crankcase breather being replaced.

Car in at garage today. Call late afternoon reporting that they wiped down the saturated components and sourced the leak to a bolt that hadn't been fully tightened on the Front Diff during recent works.

Well you can't do more than that to help them hope it all works out and the leak is gone when you get it back |
