Oil leak queston

Whilst the p38 was in having the starter changed, i asked the guy to check to see where my oil leak was coming from, he's advised me it's coming from between the engine and gearbox .
Can anyone tell me if this is a difficult job DIY or should it go into a garage?
cheers

It depends what frame of mind you are in and how strong you are, wrestling with a p38 gearbox on the drive way isn’t for the faint hearted. Its a 2 man lift. It could be one of those jobs you kinda wish you hadn’t started.
[FONT=&quot]I would say garage every time.

Is it engine oil or ATF

He aint advised you!You still dunno wots leaking!

Get under it and dip your finger in the oil!!!!!!

sorry, yes it's gear iol thats leaking

Unless you have a pit or hoist, removing the gearbox aint for the feinthearted as it's no lightweight especially with the transfer box attached. Could be something as simple as a seal gone but if it is inside, my advice is don't even go there as autoboxes are a pig to work on and you won't know how it runs unless you have a test rig, until it's refitted. The boxes on P38's tend to be pretty bullet proof if they are looked after.
