HI Community, today I have discovered some oil leakage at the gear sensor of my MTS 1200S 2014. Does anyone have experiences or recommendations with that? Change sensor or maybe just loose? Thanks M.
I would try tightening it first, to see if that solves the problem. DO NOT overtighten! I had a problem with mine on a 2015 DVT… The torque value for the 2015 is 12NM. If that doesn’t work, I would remove it and inspect/replace the rubber o-ring or sensor.
Thanks! What tool are you using to tighten it? A standard socket will not work because of the cable, right?
I bought a deep socket, shortened it to just long enough and then cut a slot along the length of it…worked really well…
This is the correct tool, not cheap mind https://www.stein-dinse.biz/product_info.php?products_id=16748
I bought a set of spark-plug sockets. Chopped the 16mm one to make a cable exit, then drove that one with one of the others. As above - it's a fairly fat o-ring seal, so IMO an o-ring replacement & cleanup should be enough... I'll be in the garage later - think I've stil got the sockets info
Just spotted a more affordable one on Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/BGS-70988-...rds=slotted+16mm+socket&qid=1685788393&sr=8-5
