Hi, my M6950DT has just started losing oil from the engine into the transmission, not the ideal way to keep my hydraulic oil topped up! Any suggestions on where the oil would be getting through would be appreciated, cheers

Is it in the clutch housing?
There is a couple of plugs that are put in after they drill the oil galleys that would be in the area of the clutch housing, also could be rear main seal.
If the oil is in the actual transmission and mixed into the hydraulic fluid and the clutch housing is dry, then the only possible way I can think of would be that the hydraulic oil pump is creating a vacuum is sucking oil out of the engine via a bad seal, Normally you would see hydraulic fluid in the motor oil and not the other way around but anything is possible.
