pretty much every once of these boxes leaks there, its probably very slight. renault actually fitted a plastic catch tray to later model renaults. keep a sheet of card under it one night, i can pretty much gaurantee you wont see any drips from it. allways a good idea to check your fluid level if theres any concern tho :D

Cheers mate was concerned it was going to be expensive!

there was no oil puddles or even drips on the drive where it lives lol
