Crack on Rear M-Dct housing

Recently rear housing got a small crack and oil leaking out. Prior to this, there was some grinding incident while driving so this might be the cause.

Can anyone advise why is the P activation lever so loose and slapping on the housing?

Anyway does Anyone has a damaged m-dct gearbox for sale so i can buy off the rear housing to replace? [IMG][/IMG]

That doesn't look good at all. Obviously, something with some force cracked the housing which would make me concerned as what was loose that did it.

The Auto mechanism to activate P is hitting the housing but how and why - we are still investigating

Don't bother repairing it, swap one out from the wreckers.

Someone on the Facebook group has one for sale for $1K.
