I wanted to post go ahead an issue I am seeing with my JK.
I am seeing a small oil leak out of the bell housing. I think it could be the rear main, but who know, going in to get it looked at on Sat. Feb 21st. I also know a guy at work his is leaking too and the dealer told him since he went off road it was not covered and it would cost him $1600 to get it fix (I say Bull) I will let you know what the say to me.
I was at the Dealer on Feb 21st, and they cleaned the area and put in some UV leak detect to try and find exactly where it is come from. It is a small amount of oil, but small leaks turn into bigger leaks and it should not be leaking with less than 8000 miles on it.
I keep everyone updated as we go along. |

Thanks Keith
I won't let them give you the " you go offroad with it so it voids the warranty" !

Lmao just clean your jeep completely before taking it in.. If you are worried I am going to a "southern" dealer and he is taking care of me. Its southern because he gave me a camo hat that has the dealer name.. I researched the hell out it. Could be the rear main seal, cracked oil cooler ( which is popular) or even just over spill from an oil change. I noticed the oil leak after richloam. So i am thinking we got the tops of our engines wet and cleaned the top and it dripped to the lowest. The dealership put a die in the oil for a fluorescent light. he said drive it around and take her in if you see any more.. I degreased the engine after camping so I am still looking for the oil so I am giving it a few more days. But we could meet up and take a ride down there together and have them check it out if you are worried. I have the same exact leak

Well they did a similar thing to mine. I was just under there today not yet a week later and it is wet on the bottom of the bell housing. I am installing the lift tomorrow so I will investigate further. What dealer did you go to?
