Is there suppose to be oil around then clutch... I dont think there is.

 

[Guest]

sounds like the seal is leaking oil from the gearbox in put shaft mate

 

[Guest]

Or from the flywheel?  :? Dunno so dont ask me.  :lol:

 

[Guest]

its more likely 2 be gearbox but hope its not the crank seal

[Guest]

looks like engine oil mate

 

[Guest]

Yeah there should not be any oil coming from those two faces - it has no gasket there for that exact purpose. Expect you'll be getting some clutch slip soon :wink:

another pick

whats so funny about my engine leaking oil n costing me more muny lmao i really dont find it funny i love this car r8 dnt wanna have to fork out for a new engine any help is greatfull

 

[Guest]

Where the crank comes out of the block (and also the area that the flywheel bolts to) there is a seal to stop oil coming from engine block and entering the clutch/housing. This has maybe gone, so gonna be an engine out job if this is the case, box and sump off - or possibly coming from gearbox side - job to say until you take it apart.
Obviously only my opinion
