L300 Rear main seal replacement
Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2018 6:58 pm
Hey all,
New to the forum,
Trying to trouble shoot some leaks going on and believe I have traced the main leak of concern to the junction of the transmission and the engine, and based on my research it's the rear main seal that I'm gonna be attempting to replace. "Amayama" is the parts dealer I have used in the past, but they are telling me that this seal is out of production, but that part number MD343564 "should fit". Does anyone have experience with this part and know if it will be the appropriate part before i tear the van apart?
Also any insight and pointers on the replacement would be helpful if anyone has experience. I have the manual and it has pretty step by step instructions on how to do so..
Cheers,
Mark
