Had a oil change on the sei yesterday to keep the service records upto date for when I get ready to sell the car on in the future. When the car was up on the ramps the mech's notice a leak coming from the gear box area. Turned out to be thick oil or something from the drive shaft from the gearbox, on the drivers side.

F.I.A.T - will this require a full replacment of CV Boot and seal? I have been quote £40 +VAt for the replacment seal? Also unsure of the part number for the 2000 Wreg 899cc SPi Sei?

Yes it will require a new boot.Over time the rubber bott hardens and eventually crack open, but on 899 cinqs, this boot holds all the gearbos oil in also.

By the sounds of things, you need to have the driveshaft oil seal changed. Needs to have the driveshaft pulled out to do it.

Great!, boot seems fine, but I might consider ordering this as well to make sure.

Looking at the part cd, I think its part id 46307085 for the CV Boot, and 2 other parts, but I think one is the seal as well. can you guys can confirm that before I go out and order it from Fiat. And roughy, does £50 sound right for someone to do the job.
