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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a 2000 S with 68,000 miles with a TIP trans. I have the car up on stands while I go thru the brakes. I noticed while giving the underneath a visual inspection for any oil leaks, I came across oil on the right/passenger side trans axle case. The oil seems to be dripping down and was not thrown all over the place. The hub coming out of the case was dirty from oil and dirt build up. It looks like it may have been going on for sometime. I removed the skid plate and it was pretty nasty from grease and grime. I did not notice any dripping of oil from the RMS. Any thoughts. JB :ah:
