What causes the rear seal to leak?

Bar's Leaks FAQ
The most common cause of rear seal leaks is age and/or high mileage. The seal can also leak due to the vehicle being stored for an extended period of time, or from running the engine low on oil. This causes drying and hardening of the seal leading to shrinking, cracking and tearing of the rear main seal.

What are the symptoms of a rear main seal leak?

Bar's Leaks FAQ
Depending on the severity of the leak the first thing you may notice is the oil level going down. The next thing that happens is spotting, where you will find oil spots, located on the driveway or garage. While looking under the vehicle around the area where the engine and transmission connect, you will find oil dripping, or a oil residue with dirt caked on this part of the vehicle. Most noticeably under the oil pan and the front of the transmission. See similar questions...

What is a rear main seal?

Bar's Leaks FAQ
The more in depth answer is: A rear main seal, also known as a main seal or rear main bearing seal is located between the engine and transmission. The crankshaft (the internal engine part that the pistons are connected to) sticks out of the rear of the engine, and the flywheel & transmission bolt to this crankshaft. The engine oil lubricates the crankshaft, pistons and other internal parts of the engine. See similar questions...

What else can be done to stop a leaking rear seal other than replacement?

Bar's Leaks FAQ
Bar's Leaks Rear Main Seal Repair is one of the only products of its kind on the market specifically designed to solve rear seal oil leaking problems.

FAQ
