Noticed oil in my garage and wondered where it was coming from. Got under the car and had seen it dripping (very very slow) where the clutch cable goes in to the trans there. Just checking to see if anyone else has had this issue. Car is a MCS Cabrio 2011 with only 3000 miles and no this is not my first manual trans car. I am just wondering if this is going to be an ongoing issue with the car or its just a bad part. Props to Birmingham Mini for getting it in and figuring out issue very quickly. Only took an hour but of course they didnt have the part.

Thanks

 

My 2008 just had slave cylinder replaced. Under warranty, thankfully.

 

got the new part installed thursday and as soon as I got back I noticed it is still leaking in the same spot but not as bad. Tech said it was clutch fluid leaking but to me it is engine oil. What a waste of time. Now I have to waste another 3 hours at least going down and back
