Just left my local dealership. I showed them the problem for heck of it when I was there getting a few things. They told me its leaking because I use synthetic oil..lol I just said ohh! Not gonna get into a arguement with the tech about how it shouldn't matter.

Don't be to quick to phoopa synthetic causing oil leaks. It has been discussed on many threads over the last many years. Many people who developed leaks after switching to synthetic had their leaks disappear after switching back to dino oil. If there is any possibility of a leak, synthetic will find it!!

Yes I am aware of that, but what I was getting at was that If it was a good seal from the start it shouldnt matter. I have run synthetic in everything I own and never had a problem. Including all my sportbikes..
