Hi guys,

I have a 2008 SL65 AMG with 93k miles, while doing the inspection as part of the service A my mechanic detected a leak from the differential side seal. The parts cost just a few bucks but they need to dismount the differential, so I thought of asking to service the differential while in there to save on labor.
My question to you is, can you recommend anything else to do at the same time?

Thanks in advance,
Leo

Generally for any car, if the differential is coming out, I would address any seals and bushings I could get to.

Even if only one side is leaking, I certainly hope your mechanic is replacing both sides.

yes, both sides plus the pinion seal. He didn't mention any bushings though, I'll ask him
