Default Grizzly Dif. Oil Leak

I have a 05 Grizzly with only about 600 miles on it. I have noticed oil leaking from the rignt side of the rear differential. (where the axle comes out).It is leaking mixture of oil and water.I took to the dealer and they replaced the seal.Same thing happened after my next riding in the water.So I had the seal replaced again and than again 2 more times. Basicly this problem ocures allways when I ride my quad in the water deeper then half of tire. I must note that I have never rode the quad in water deeper than 3/4 of the tire hight or max. tire high. The dif. is vented all the way under the fuel tank and the hose is not broken, so there is no way that the water would get there thru the vent.The dealer does not have any explanation how the water gets inside the dif. Their only solution is to replace the seal again without any real solution to stop this problem.On my argument that this should not be happening they only said, that this is not watercraft but ATV and that I should never go to water deeper then 6 inches. I am tired of paying over and over for the same repair !! Did anybody have the same or similar problem ???
Any ideas ???[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Default Grizzly Dif. Oil Leak

First off i would like to take this time to welcome you to the forums, Youll find alot of the answers you are looking for about your quad here, but unfortunately i do not have the answer for you. But i have a suggestion, those little bastards should not be charging you for the same charge over and over that is just plain unacceptable and you are being taken advantage of DO NOT pay them infact have them keep fixing it untill the problem stops, theyll learn their lesson to diagnose the problem and fix the problem accordingly since it would be coming out of their pocket. Alot of these motorsports places will rip you off and nickle and dime you. 6 inches of water ? bull crap ive had my blaster in 2 feet of water/mud and it still runs like a charm. Concluding this I must say you should bring it back and explain to them that you are not going to pay them and that they will fix the problem right the first time. 4-5 times for the same problem occuring ? anyone else see a problem here ?. Sorry i didnt have the answers im just sick of motorsports places taking advantage of people who have earned their cash honestly and are taken advantage of by these people. Opps for the edit

SOMEONE HELP THIS GUY LOL.
