I had a new clutch put in my car 3 weeks ago, as the crank shaft oil seal had gone and leaked oil all over clutch, the garage told me he put new oil seals on and put new clutch in.
Now my clutch has started slipping bad, i parked it up and looked underneath, and oil is pissing out inbetween gear box and engine, and leaked oil all over clutch.
When i go to garage again in morning, if he says he wont do the job correctly, and stop oil leak and now he needs to put new clutch in again, if he wont do it, who can a go to to complain. I supplyed the new clutch kit that he fitted. Does he have to fix this.?

You do get duff seals sometimes and it can be difficult to tell visually until its done a few miles, on the other hand I have seen them rammed on without any lube in sight which is asking for trouble.

I will go see garage in the morning, and see what he says, hopefully he will be a decent chap, but i can not see him purchasing a new clutch to put in it.

The old-new plate can be cleaned with brake-cleaner, some oil may continue to leach out after cleaning but usually it will burn off as its quite small quantities - don't purposely try and burn it off in one go, it speeds up the leaching and you'll end up having to use brake cleaner again.

Me, nope, :lol: On a serious note if the old duff seal has scored the crank chances are slim just fitting a seal will do it
