Best Answer

Just drop the transmission. Kia uses a special tool for installing the new seal (09231-33000). I wonder if a piece of PVC pipe, of the correct size, would work for that. The engine may need to be supported while the trans is removed. Lots of things to disconnect first; Drive axles, hoses etc.

Likely will take lots of time and patience.

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

How many motor mounts in 1993 Cadillac deville?

How many Motor mounts are in a 1991-1993 Cadillac DeVille? Technically, only one (passenger side front). However, since the engine and transmission are bolted together they are suspended in the chassis as an assembly. So there are 3 transmission mounts and one engine mount that work together to suspend the engine and transmission as an assembly. Cadillac Man

How many quarts of transmission fluid does a 305 Chevy motor take?

Seriously? A 305 Chevy motor does not take "transmission fluid"! The transmission takes transmission fluid, and the motor takes oil. The 305 should hold 5 quarts of oil I believe. As for the transmission, I believe that all depends on what transmission you have. Seriously? A 305 Chevy motor does not take "transmission fluid"!
