I've recently had my clutch replaced and since it has come out of the garage it has an oil leak which it didn't have when it went in.....is it possible it is something the garage have done or is it as they have said just a coincidence that the seal has gone at this moment ....... please advice.............

HI there,

No engine oil seals are touched when doing a clutch, even if the fly wheel was removed for re machining, the rear main oil seal is not disturbed in any way, if thi sis now leaking, it will be a case of very bad timing.
