6000 mile srvice, new oil leaks

[dvmdf]

After 6000 mile service my Spyder developed new oil leaks. Left side, front and on the right. Airbox was cleaned and I have a catch can installed. The oil seems to drip from the lower frame. Any thoughts/suggestions?

SPILL????????????????

A spill would be my guess, too, although there are other possibilities. Any time a problem develops immediately after service...it is usually related to a mistake that was made during that work.

Mine developed a leak too as evidenced by a sudden and growing stain in the garage.

Try to get them to admit they made a mistake and shouldn't charge you. lol

OverFill?

I see manual capacity at 4.5 qts but see that dealers routinely put in 5 qts.. Did you check you level for overfill??

:dontknow:
Very limited info to go on, But sometimes a mechanic will forget what wipe down rags are for,
And then you'll have some residual dripping, especially with Syn. oil. opcorn:opcorn:

If they checked the valves its the valve cover gaskets. Ask me how I know.:sour:

If you clean it all and still have one on the right side-- it could be the oil pressure sensor--- been there --- done that. $10 part-- easy to replace.
