are oil leaks from the rear differential a common problem with the crosstour? I had a seal replaced three weeks ago and the leak has come back.

I would think that an oil leak as you describe should be unusual, and certainly shouldn't have returned IF repaired a few weeks ago. I'd take it back and make 'em fix it correctly!!

agreed that there should be no leaks but it may be coming from the overflow if it was a little overfilled.
Good idea for the shop to have another look to make sure.

There's about a liter of oil in there and any leak could be critical very quickly.

Thanks for your help folks. I will take it back to the dealer for another try. the leak is so small it takes a while to show up on the garage floor.
Thanks again.

Any update Lightman?

When you had it fixed the first time, did the mechanic tell you anything about why it was leaking? Was it a seal, loose cover bolts? Richard
