Common signs include water leaking into the bellows (which can lead to gimbal bearing failure), a growling or grinding noise from the transom area, or visible grease leaking out from the drive assembly.

It is recommended to inspect the seal annually during routine maintenance. We suggest replacing the seal whenever you replace the gimbal bearing or if you notice any signs of wear, cracking, or leakage.
