Well, it really looks like I'm going to have to do the rear main seal on my car. Can this be done without pulling the engine out of the car? I've been told that it can be done with just dropping the rear cap, and then being able to push out the old seal over the crank with the new seal, and that it can be difficult to get the oil pan gasket sealed properly at the rear of the pan. Also can the upper seal be changed without lowering the crank. I'd like to try and do this myself, but I haven't done any kind of engine work like this and I know it's one area that needs to be done right the first time. On average, what might the cost be to have it done? Thanks guys.
