Sparky Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 I had mine 09 PTU seals changed back in January and I see occasional drop on the driveway. It happens after driving in higher speeds on the highway. I wonder if there is a different dealer I could use here in Mississauga which has good reputation for PTU repairs.

Your best bet is probably to simply pull the rear drive clutch fuse at all times other than when you actually need AWD traction. It is likely that the PTU lubricating oil is boiling, compromising the seal, due to the PTU heating level from operating in AWD mode. The Mazda CX-7 uses engine coolant to cool the PTU in order to avoid this very problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
