So after taking about 10 minutes just to find the filler plug I eventually got my BTR diff topped up (200mls short).

Now it appears to be the front seal (pinion seal?) which is leaking quite badly, anyone know if this can be done in situ?

The only other leak is the back plate which I presume can be removed and resealed quite easily, the drive shaft seals are good also.

Oh forgot to mention it didn't seem to have a breather pipe, all I could see was the casting with nothing coming out. I should have had a poke around in it but didn't think at the time.

I've just done my GKN and although it may be possible to do the pinion seal in situ I wouldn't be able to do the back cover in place. Mine is the older one so the BTR might be different.
