Thanks for posting a detailed account of the outboard Differential Seal change. Appreciate all the maintenance info you have shared in the past!
Mine began to weep @15k miles. I removed the old one with two screws as you say. I installed the new one carefully.
I slathered Dielectric Grease on the inside of the Dust Cover and on the outside of the Seal so as to keep dirt off the Seal as well as keeping it from drying out. I then filled with 180 ml of Castrol Syntrax 80W-90. After a ~20 mile test ride I carefully opened the Fill Hole (without removing the rear wheel) for just an instant to let out the built up air pressure then immediately tighten'd it back up. I now have 25K Miles and it does not mist nor weep.
I plan to change the Gear Oil in August before a trip to the Smokies. I'll let the air pressure out again too.Last edited by R111S; 07-05-2019, 07:49 AM.'11 BMW K1300S - Cobra SP2 Slip-On Muffler, OEM Centerstand, Grip Puppies, OEM Rear Rack, OEM Bags, Three Vent Holes in Filler Neck, Kuykendahl Riser Plates, Kickstand Foot, Ilmburger Rear Hugger, Throttle Meister, Stebel Horn, ABM Synto EVO Brake/Clutch Levers, Corbin Seat, Z-Technik Smoke Windscreen, R&G Frame SlidersComment
