Had my first oil change and the mechanic discovered a little oil residue under the gearbox he said it seems like a leak from somewhere to your gearbox,
iv only done 12.7k miles and I assume the warranty covers any issues like this? Anyone had any experience with issues like this or know what issue this could be?

UPDATE: Got it inspected by SEAT and seems to be a legitimate misty leak, nothing too serious but will be getting investigated and repaired over few days under warranty.

I'd just put it into a dealer. There isn't any point in messing with it when it's under warranty.
Yeh the dealer next to me is awful.. Seat Preston. They said they would get someone to ring me past two days reminded them 3x 0 calls.. i might try another dealer maybe blackpool or blackburn.
