Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

Just to keep you informed....I called the dealership today to see what the status was on my ride since they have had it a week now. The shop foreman told me that they could not get it to leak for them! He told me that they had ridden it about 10 miles but it didn't leak for them. He also told me tha...

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

So I called the dealership this morning and sent them the pictures on my previous post. I am taking it back to them this week per their instructions to not clean off the housing and they would look at it in person and see what they could determine. I have determined that it is that gasket. I don't k...

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

Ok latest update on my leak. I had left it at the dealership last Tuesday and they looked at it and cleaned the oil off the housing. The tech had ridden it about 6 miles and they said that they could not see anyplace that it had leaked. They sprayed some white powder all over the rear housing and to...

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

I have a pickup homie, that is how I got it home when I bought it. It's not a bad trip, 4 lane highway and interstate all the way. Besides if my wife goes it will give her an excuse to hit a few stores while we are in the city, if not I'll get to hit Harbor Freight on the way back and take my time! ...

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

The good news, if EZ's right the gorillas will have to stand down. Take them 35 minutes to sequence those 6 case bolts 8) I hope it will only take 35 minutes to sequence those 6 case bolts Homie however I think it is a bad gasket, maybe two gaskets. They did tell me that I would leave it so it may ...

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

Ok, just to keep everyone up to speed, the dealer called back today and told me to bring it in on June 6 and be prepared to leave it for a day or so....2 trips now. Oh well if it fixes the problem I don't care. I am not super heated about the problem but I do want it fixed and I want to know what ha...

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

I was going to drain and refill the rear case and decided to take a couple more shots. I think the oil is coming from higher up than the upper fill bolt. I hope the pictures show what I was seeing.
I think it is coming from around the brake lever bar or directly above it.

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

I want answers also, I will keep this post updated for all. The dealer is from my hometown and I am friends with his family. I think he will let me know exactly what has happened, but after the 23rd.

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

Quick update, I called the dealer today and set up an appointment for the 23rd. I won't be able to get it there before then. I will keep riding it but just for short trips in town. It's still leaking so I guess I'll just take it easy.
If anyone has any ideas feel free to chime in!

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

I'm thinking that is gear oil. Color is right for gear oil....wrong for engine oil.....even a new, low mileage engine. Leaking seal? Bad luck....See the dealer. Fish I am thinking leaking seal also, however my crankcase oil is low and it has been at the top of the mark on the dipstick. Is there a s...

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

That's unfortunate, you are running out of easy fixes and good options. Somebody think of something else before the gorilla's start taking things apart. How is the oil level looking in the crankcase? I just checked the oil level and it is down about 3/4 on the cross hatched area of the dipstick. It...

Re: Oil leak on rear housing and tire.

Is there any oil in the little clear tube on the back of the airbox? Also, you can squeeze the edges of the little black tube next to it and see if any oil leaks out there, too. This is nothing to do with the air filter, but there is a breather tube coming up from the CVT that goes into the side of...
