![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
First off, I would like to thank everybody who has helped this newcomer with my XKR on this forum..Its invaluable to have the resources and experience available here. Anyways as I make my way around my car that I bought out of an estate a few months back, I could see upon initial inspection oil around the rear diff, in fact I posed the question here earlier and got several responses indicating its most likely a input pinion seal. I have the car on jack stands, and took a closer look..I have included some photos of what I see...Lots of oil in multiple locations. I'm looking for input on these photos and is the pinion seal can make this type of mess or is something else haywire. I appreciate any help/ advice on what I should do..

I use the "manage attachments" tab, select them from my PC, I select the photos from PC, I get the previews to come up in the window with the option to add comments to my pictures. I click upload in the upper right corner, they disappear never to be seen again. tried it 5 times, photos are 400X600 pixels.

Trying to figure out why if the input seal is leaking, why the rust portion of the input shaft instn wet.
