Hi, just after a bit of advise please.I had the car up on my mates ramp yesterday to check for a noise at the back but while it was up i saw gearbox oil leaking from the black plastic cover on the front of the gearbox so i took the front of the cover off and it looks to be coming from where the selector shaft goes into the box. Has anybody changed this seal before, i'm hoping its not a gearbox out job. Does the shaft come out of the gearbox in situ? Any help appreciated, its a 2004 1.6 focus by the way

I think mines doing this too, same symptoms, so would be useful to know...
