I had my axles replaced (front) last week and finally got the car back on Wednesday. Well I drove home and parked it for the night. Drove to work next morning and parked (about a 45 min ride one way). When I got out of work I moved my car and noticed a good size leak (about a 1/4 cup) on the ground. Drove the car home and saw another leak forming when I parked it. I got it up on jacks and noticed the axle seal was drenched and srayed oil all over the place. I drove the car back to the mechanics for repair which they said it was in fact the axle seal (block side).
Question - Did I do any damage to my new axle??? from the leak? |

Get the axles seals from the dealer. When i had this leak when i changed my axles, every autopart store carried the wrong seal for our cars, and if the part number is used throughout the states, then they are all wrong. I tried carquest, auto zone, advance discount, and napa.

QUOTE (14:19:21) Daniel: That was a JDM hole in the side of the box too. There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out. QUOTE Ferdi says (11:29) No, it looks like a hooker put her acid vag on your hood. Acid vag = bigger problem than a few dings. |
