    Yep, Mne's only 1500KM's new and has the same greeny/blueish fluid.
    Dripped onto the exhaust/burnt and no further.
    I'll keep an eye on it.

    No doubt , down the track I'll not give these leaks a second thought.

    i had the same leakage on my new 90. i took it to warranty service and they told me it was assembly fluid and nothing needs to be done about it. having done my own research I'm pretty sure it lubrication of the adapter shaft so hopefully there will still be some left on it by the time the leakage dries up!

    G'day All,

    I thinking because this blue grease on the outside of the gearbox rear and seems all new vehicles are affected is in fact a witness type mark to indicate the adapter shaft has been lubricated.
    The contractors and L/R and the Dealers can see this grease spot and know the adapter shaft has been lubricated during assembly.
    Once this blue grease has been removed it doesn't seem to leak out again.
    Just a thought.
    Chris

    Mine has been leaking from new. I'm at about 2500kms now and I wipe off about once per week. I wonder when mine will stop appearing?

    I wish my MY15 had a leak here... then at least I would know the output shaft had been lubricated during assembly... rather than living with a big question!

    Lots on Defender2 about this topic...
