21k and noticed the rear pinion seal leaking after my last camping trip.
How common is this prob?
Dealer tells me they have never seen one yet :rolleyes:
Think I'm okay to run it for awhile or do I risk a huge dump and cook the rear end?
I hate loaners!!!! :eek:

I had an axle seal leak not long after it went off warranty but nothing else has been touched on the diff and I have nearly 260,000km.

Most pinion seal leaks I've repaired were usually caused by plugged breathers.

mine leaked at the pinion seal at 5000 miles .... and i had to make a 1000 mile trip.... just keep er full and wait until the part comes in (i had to wait 3 weeks) but since i kept all my gear lube reciepts they reimbursed me in full!
