Got mine back and got home. Nice little leak on the forward cover on the crankcase. Pulled the cover off and had a tore oring. Wrapped some teflon tape and no more leak. Wouldn't go to the dealership, I'm not the nicest person when something like that happens.

Um you might want to take the transmission in also beings that's what the recall is all about, they will give you new rings on the pistons. I never did understand that one....

The transmission is part of the motor .... they cannot be separated.

They take the jugs off so that they can split the case to get to the transmission.
