This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Hi Pelican Experts; I have a 2006 Carrera 4S with 30,000 km only. I noticed a very slight oil leak gold color oil under the two rubber cover 7222710287 at the bottom of the gear. Slight means that I find some traces of oil if I run my fingers on the inside of the gear and on the inside of rubbers. Should I be worried or simply add oil? If I need to fix it, what does it involve? __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here:

That is a common issue on the C4 and Turbo transmissions. As far as I know the only option is to replace the transmission. Neither Porsche or Mercedes supply the gasket separately. This should be fixed ASAP!! I know a guy who tried to make various gaskets out of various materials for that leak, and he was unsuccessful. Send me a photo just to verify leak location. - Casey
