Technical Leak!:(

Yeah, the gearbox on the 899 is strange like that, the inner CV joints are lubed by the gearbox oil- a joint split and oil seeps everywhere!

Its quite stuff, but it stinks

I've just been to the garage for a quote to get the work done and I was quoted 60 quid! and thats just labour.
The mechanic also said that the inner boots very rarely go. My sisters bf's car is a G reg and he has never needed to change his....
Hmmmmmmm baffling!
Its these times that I wish that I could fix my car myself.
