Hi Group,
I'm replacing the transmission on my brm (diff pin failed and blew holes through the inside and outside casing of transmission), and figured its a good time to replace the dmf while I'm there.
This is what I found behind the flywheel:
Quite a bit of oil below, but also above the rear main seal.
I read the rms is unlikely to go bad on this engine, and its often more trouble to change than to leave it.
There's a bit of a diagonal path where oil may of come in from the top.
Maybe have to check the tandom pump up there. Or the valve cover. Its also possible the transmission fluid splashed around in there when the diff exploded.
Thoughts on how to confirm if the seal is bad?
