Getrag 7dcl750 gearbox weep hole leak (AMG GTS)
Discussion
So after travelling to le man this year I noticed on the ferry a substantial amount of oil leaking out of the gearbox.
After endless amounts of research I have concluded this to be a common fault where a seal perishes and causes oil to leak of the weep hole.
I believe mercedes do not fix this their solution is a new gearbox (can anyone confirm this)
Does anyone know places that can fix this, this is a very specialist job and only a handful of places have the correct tools and knowledge to complete the fix.
Another question is whilst getting the seals replaced would you replace any other parts whilst its all stripped down, I believe the speed sensor is also another part to potentially fail.
These gearboxes are also in the amg SLS ,ford GT and a few Ferrari platforms.
The car is still stuck a Dover awaiting recovery. Any more information or contacts that could help would be greatly appreciated
