Gearbox Oil Leak

[richard691]

Recently had 3rd and 4th synchros replaced in my gearbox by Agency Transmissions and have used the recommended Elf oil from Renault. I thought initially that I had over filled the box with oil but this is not the case. The oil is leaking at the top of the box from the breather hole and it is leaking down the box onto the selector and then onto the exhaust which is creating alot of smoke. I am getting very concerned now as I am loosing a fair amount of oil and dont want to damage the box.

Can anyone help with this problem?

Thanks

Well nobody had any ideas back in 2012!

Maybe you will have better luck this time

You`re learning fast.

I can see you are going to fit in well on here.

Do you have the rubber pipe connected to the breather hole on it. might be worth getting a longer pipe on it and extending that upwards.
