First Warranty Problem. Leaking posi case.

Well, I made it to 1300mi without a problem. Now the differential case on the driver's side leaks.

If you have had this problem, how long did the dealer have your car?

Every C5 I've had has had this problem. First my '98, then my '01 Z06, and now my '02 Z06. In each case the problem was fixed in a day, however for the '98 they didn't have the part in stock so it took two trips.

After being repaired did the problem re-occur?

I believe I had it fixed a second time on the '98. The '01 was fine out to 10K miles (when I traded it on the '02). The '02 has about 12K on it and no more leaks (so far).

McRat,

Our Z06 (6,000 miles) just developed the driver's side differential leak also so I'll be taking it to the dealer this week. Our 2001 Coupe had it happen twice at about the 13,000 mile mark but was fixed the second time and no more leaks since, 23,000 miles now.
