Looks like the hot weather and fast driving has made a slight leak into one that's creating a bit of a puddle. I found a thread on Rennelist for 924/944...

...but is there one here for 914? Same procedure? Any tips? Thanks gents!

Tq on bolt is 19 ft/lb. Seal does not bottom out on its own. It will stop when it hits the diff bearing itself, but that is too far. You will only need to push it in until flush with the little step that you can feel that starts at the seal bore. As long as you don't warp it putting it in, yer cool. I lube the seal outer to aid in seating. I also slowly take a large dia something (I have a metal slug) and slowly tapp around the perimeter to seat it. Slow is good because if you gobo far you may ruin it pulling it back out. When am doing them the case is empty and I can push through and try again. Always better to instal and remove to try again in same direction.
