Just happened all of a sudden. Will check for cracks now...

No cracks what i can see and its seeping from somewhere right at the front??

Been reading around and i think i have to remove the gearbox and replace the seal at the front?? Sounds pretty straight forward

no seal at front of box , just a corroded through case probably common 5 speed problem, case part is nla, waiting on germany to decide if they can remake them at sensible money

Thanks for the reply,

So it's a finding a second hand gear box "game" then on Ebay Is it possible to find a "good" one these days. Is it worth removing and sending it to you?
