The oil leak is from the front diff, and Mackies say it is something to worry about and the the seal needs replacing. To do this, they have to drop the subframe, so it's a pretty big job.
And they gave me the cost before they went ahead... for the whole lot (as above) .... £675! 
It's a good job that I:
1. Don't play golf
2. Don't have a mistress
3. Don't smoke
4. Do love the car  |
Really? Which side? I did my RH (drivers side) seal and was fairly straight forward, just drive shaft out.
