The plastic isn't leaking...it is just catching the leaks. You still haven't found the source.

No I haven't but it all points to the clutch screw. Taking it to the dealer Tuesday. That's what warranties are for.

i have VIN # 330 and no leak, so it appears that some of the earlier releases will have the problem, but it is easily fixed by a competent dealer.

Addressed by Dealer Beore Delivery
My RT Limited came in Tuesday and my dealership said they had already been notified by BRP about the problem so they made sure the problem was addressed before I took delivery. I've put about 300 miles on mine and have had no signs of leaks.

Just a .02 Back to my consumer advocacy mode.
Fortunately, the oil leak is just a small glitch. It needs to be addressed and fixed promptly. A $30K machine should be coming out of the dealer without a leak that they now know about. They need to get their act together. Machines should now be coming from the factory--with no leaks.
The quicker they get it solved, the quicker it will go away. BRP needs a good year with the 2014's, and I think they know it. That is in our favor.
