    Rear end seal leaking

    Well hell. Was underneath my ACR today with a flashlight and noticed what looked like a leak. Pulled the skid plate off and yep...the differential is leaking at the seal.
    Only 1850 miles. Looks like a trip to the dealer is in order. Glad I wasn't going to a track this weekend.
    My other 09 diff never leaked so I figure it would have to be because this car sat for so long before I bought it. I am the 1st owner and got it the end of last year.

    Is it the housing cover that's leaking, if so easy fix. Or is it leaking at one of the half shafts?

    Good luck!
    My passenger side half-shaft seal has a small leak. I'm on my 3rd one since I noticed it, but it only leaks at the track. Street driving (even spirited) won't make it leak at all. Every time I've replaced it, the seal looks fine, so I can't figure out what's going on with it. Since the Viper isn't really going to see track duty anymore, I'm done fooling with it for the time being.
