Another JC5 oil leak thread *yawn*

[freeman(clio)]

Hi,

after a bit of information from someone in the know,

my 53 clio cup is leaking gearbox oil about 2-3 drips a day, and smells when warm, i have traced the leak,

its circled in the below picture

does the seal kit from renault fix the leak from this part of the selector, or is the seal for the part of selector with the black rubber boot over ?


think seal kit part number is
770 138 9670

that bit is just casting, its not "wet side" your leak will be from the selector seal, good luck buying that kit from renault, discountinued due to lack of demand! (i have 10 kits coming from France)

 

[freeman(clio)]

Just the man i was wanting to reply. If not spoken for can i purchase one of the 10 from yourself ?

 

[Fred@BTM]

As soon as they are in stock i will post up to take orders!

 

[freeman(clio)]

And can you fit the kit without pulling the box out ?

I'm not made of money LOL! Yes box stays put, its a bit of a t**t to do but only take 1 hour even for a numpty haha!

They all do it, just some worse than others

I love Renault's fix for the later Clio's - stick a bit of plastic under it :S

 

[freeman(clio)]

Im a skoda tech so shouldnt be too much of a problem

 

[MicKPM]

How many pre-orders do you have Fred? I'll take one

 

[mckay]

Fred have you any of these left? Could do with one.

Hi Fred do you have for sale the seal kit 7701389670 for my clio 182 cup please? I work at a main dealers and we can't get them any more. One or two of the techies are saying your box is never the same after its fitted which is a shame as mine is slick as anything even after 80k. From your experience are they that bad or do they need to bed in?? The leak isn't bad currently, just a stain really but I don't want it getting worse.


Would be grateful for any help

I have spoke to Renault UK and they have said that this kit is no longer made / available and there is no replacement for it either.
I have spoke to them more than once about this in great length and they have spoke to france with no joy.

Contact TND in france who make them.

I have recently had a few parts for the seal kit.

Very helpful and friendly. If you can talk french phone if not stick to email lol.
