Rear mail oil seal replacement
First, please dont use my milage for referance. Because my car sees regular autocross action and track time, my 178,000miles is not the same as a daily driven only 178,000miles.
After autocross one weekend I noticed a drip of oil under my car, I jacked it up and saw this... |

I don't recall where this is.
Mine had a leak around the timing chain cover. Redid the silicone seal, and replaced head gasket whole this was open. Edit: here is my leak.. Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk |

I check my compression regularly, and I have a catch can. There are no other leaks and this leak gets worst when you drive the car vs idling, a indicator of a RMS leak.

Here is the old seal, you can see its not in goodshape, its also a bit hard where it should be flexible

OK. Looks like you got it well in hand. That seal is definitely not happy. I'm doing a clutch tomorrow on mine but I don't think the RMS will be needed. Same sort of life, but much less mileage.
Cheers. |
