Hi, A few weeks back upon getting out of the car I could smell that quite obvious gear oil smell. Upon looking below the car there was evidence of a gear oil drop or two from the nearside engine under belly cover.

I have noticed that the leak has wosened over the past few days. I have not fully investigated yet but I am suspecting perhaps the drive shaft oil seals may be found to be at fault.

Anyone had such an oil leak from their gearbox?

Gearbox oil seal sounds favorite to me. These could be quite common on the older Nissans.
