Rear Main Seal Oil Leak

Featured Replies

#1

Hey Everybody,

 

I have a 2008 FG XR6 Turbo with 98xxx km on the it. It has had a niggling little oil leak from the rear of the engine for a few years, mechanic said it looks like the Rear Main Seal. Haven't done anything about it because it was not too bad, but recently it has become bad, so I will have to bite the bullet and get it fixed.

 

While they are doing this work, are there any other gaskets / seals / o-rings that I should have changed to save myself some hassle (and $$$) in the future? I just figure that since most of the time and cost is from taking the engine out and putting it back in, I'll give it a birthday while it is out.

 

Thanks,

Panda

Use a ford seal, & if it's modified replace the flex plate ($200 from pingtune) & dont take the engine out, just take it to a gearbox place & get them to remove the gearbox ( I'm assuming its a auto)
