seepage at output shaft seal
I got an oil change done today and the mechanic told me that he noticed some seepage at the output shaft seal. He said it's nothing to worry about now, but they'll see if it has got worse at next service(due in usually 5k miles).
Should i bring my car to the dealer and get the seal replaced as it is still under warranty.

The dealer did it without too much trouble. Just said that usually the leak would have to be worse to change the seal out but as I was nearly out of warranty the job was done.
Best to have it done then if there are any other problems with it they will turn up before waranty ends.
