oil leak. rear main?? help please!
i'm lost about this. there's two big rubber hose things sticking out the transmission (read about them, don't know what their for) and theres oil dripping from one. think its the rear main seal, but not sure because what's dripping is really old oil, but what's in the engine is brand new. still almost clear.... already checked the oil level. this just came up when i changed the oil from quaker state to valvoline maxlife. it started running A LOT more smooth, but the oil leak appeared. thanks for ur help!
Its most likely your oil pan leaking.
I checked out my rear main seal when i swapped my trans...was fine and dry.
Thats after 230k miles.
Those two rubber plugs can be pulled...check the forums for oil pan info.
There is a way to check them if they are not all tightened correctly
