A few weeks ago I noticed my car leaking oil. Nothing major but a new drip on the garage floor a day or so. At first I though maybe I didn't tighten the drain bolt enough or something. Finally, I got around to looking under the car to check it out. It looked as if it was leaking where the front driver axle goes into the transfer case. I took the car to the dealership and luckily I was covered under warranty. It was the transfer case axle seal. Because of the New Years holiday and the rarity (or so I was told) of this issue, it took the dealership about a week to fix. They replaced both axle seals.

Has any other AWD owners experienced this? I'm lowered about 2-3 inches and have wobble issues, more so when I have my Vossen's rather than the stockies. Was thinking maybe the wobbles caused this premature leak?

I have a lowered GS AWD and have no issues with leaks. I've been riding like this for 1.5 years/about 20k miles. I'm on DF 210s. I'm due for a oil change soon and will pay closer attention to this. Thanks for the heads up!

I went to see my toyota mechanic who has worked on my lexus n my fathers es back in the day... Anyway i brought up my axles were leaking. He checked n said it was only at the clamps so no big deal at all. I thought my boots have to be changed but nope. Im on bc racing coils w about 3/4 to 1/2 inch wheel gap...

This is my front Diff and i still haven't got the time to get it checked out... I'm assuming it will be quite expensive
