What is the difficulty level on replacing rear main seal on a n excursion its blowing transmission fluid all over passenger side underneath?

Well the rear main seal is at the rear of the engine and would leak engine oil if it was leaking,but if the rear main seal is the leak? it usually requires the removal of the transmisson. But if you know that it is transmission fluid then I would check the transmission cooler lines, transmission cooler, and transmission pan gasket for leaks.

How can you tell if a rear main seal is leaking?

You will likely find oil puddles, from the size of a quarter to the size of your hand on your driveway in the area that corresponds to about the back of the engine compartment where your car has been parked. However, in some cases if the leak isn't bad yet, it will only leak while the engine is running. To tell for certain, use a degreaser/solvent on the oil pan and all around it - wherever you see oil. Then, let the vehicle run for a good 15 minutes and see if you can tell more clearly where the leak is coming from.If it's dripping out of the seal and/or off the bottom of the bell housing towards the back of the oil pan, than it's very likely this is a rear main. Also, validate the oil is black and not red. Black is engine oil, red is transmission. If it's red, then you have a transmission issue and it's not the rear main.


How can you find where your Isuzu axiom transmission is leaking?

Raise the car and clean and degrease the area where the transmission and engine meets. Drive for approx. 20 mins to heat the engine up then check for leaks. The most common area for leak is the rear main seal. Good luck.

Can just tightening the bolts help stop a small rear engine seal leak on 2000 frontier?

I have been doing transmission work for about five years and in that time the only way I have ever stoped a rear main seal leak is to remove the transmission andflywheel. There are no bolts to tighten.


Can replacing a rear main seal cause leakage into the transmission?

No. The transmission is sealed to the input shaft and torque converter inside the bell housing of the transmission. It is possible to leak oil into the bell housing, but that will not migrate into the sealed transmission. If your transmission fluid looks as dark as your motor oil, a flush of your transmission may be in order. -Steve
