Oil Leak Question

[itshimdazza]

Guys how renowned are the rb25det from getting oil leaks?

I appear to be leaking a few drops every time i pull up after driving for a while and appears to be from the rear seal..

Any ideas what cost would be involved in getting this fixed. I just havnt the skill/muscle to drop the box and do it myself.

regards,

Darren

Ps: the motor was only rebuilt (stock) about 2000 kms ago, would a warranty cover this?

Obviously it depends on what the warranty covers... but I'd say it should be, unless you're over the kms or time.

Rear main seal could be around $500ish I had in my head... Mine's been dropping a little oil too so I'm trying to plan to have it changed in the next month or so.

let us know how you go with getting yours done then?

Rear main seal i believe is about $8, all you need then is a hoist + someone who knows what to do. Otherwise $400, of course it may be less or more expensive than that.

man,

For about $8 bucks I should give this a go. Gotta get a hoist and a couple of stongs mates over...

Ps: I have have sent sms to the guy who repaired my motor to see if covered by waranty and he said to bring it pass and he will consider/check depending on mods done since. (only coils) so maybe i will be in luck....?
