Help re oil seal?

Post by Gixermark » Wed May 28, 2014 6:48 pm

Hi all
Bit of advice please, as per an earlier thread my gearbox gave up today so ordered a new one from George.

The garage fitting the replacement is a solid, reliable one however, I did mention an oil leak from the bottom of the bell housing ( front of, where it meets the engine ) and the mechanic said it would be worth replacing the rear main seal. Upon searching for the said seal I cannot find any info anywhere so am not sure what seal he means! I believe it may be a flywheel crank seal but would appreciate any advice on what he means please?

What seal would you think it maybe .....

Thanks in advance

Yep, it is a diesel, 4X4, 2.5.

Thanks for the info, looking at the diagram this seal leaking would make sense why there is oil around the bottom of the bell housing.

Cheers Northern Bungolow :D

This Company worth a call, also try your local Ford and 4x4 dealer.
