Weepy clutch cover
My curvy has it. Always had it. Never really bothered me but i am starting to get fed up of my belly pan getting fully of crap after a while and have decided its probably better just to sort it out. Any tried n trusted methods to fix this out there?

Re: Weepy clutch cover
you can just buy a new big o-ring that goes inside it.
Be careful doing it up as it is only plastic the clutch cover. |

Re: Weepy clutch cover
p.s lean it over far enough and you don't need to drain the oil!

Re: Weepy clutch cover
Really? I always though it was a bit more than just replace the o-ring..

Re: Weepy clutch cover
well it depends I've had two sv's and just the o-seal has solved it,
if its warped then thats a different matter - you can put it on a very flat surface to determine that. My first one went because the dealership over filled it. |

Re: Weepy clutch cover
Once it leaks it'll leak forever if you don't replace the whole lot IMO. The plastic clutch cover warps and that's it. I got a new Suzuki genuine seal which I seem to remember being horrendously expensive for what it was and used blue Hylomar gasket seal and torqued it all down and it still ended up leaking again.

Re: Weepy clutch cover
The cover on my 1st SV weeped, bought a 2nd hand cover off someone on here, but as said before it is only made of plastic so dont overtighten it or it will warp again

Re: Weepy clutch cover
Its about 56 quid for a new cover, I had this problem tried changing the o ring twice along with adding blue sealant.
Ended up buying a new cover/ o ring and it hasn't leaked since |
