Hi I seem to have oil dripping out of the drivers side gearbox cv boot ..on the end of the gearbox extension ( there is a tiny hole in the boot which I thought was the problem but on inspection the other cv boots have this hole as well.. poss a breather ?)..it does not look like its the seal in the gearbox trumpet that is leaking but is it possible for gearbox oil to get into the cv boot ? It is very black and runny not like you would expect cv boot grease to be like thanks in advance.

Depends if the cv boot has been regressed and what sort has been used. Check your gearbox oil mate if the level is ok i'd expect the seal in the trumpet to be ok. The cv boots shouldn't have any hole in as the centrifugal force would tend to throw grease out of it. Got a picture of the leak,the hole in the boots and the general trumpet area?
