Rear Main Oil Leak

Post by Stefstian »

Hi guys,

I'm new to this, I need help ASAP?

My gf got a 09 GTI DSG out of her divorce. Rear Main Seal is leaking. OEM Price is R1825, labour charges to change it is R3500

Is that normal price or not?

She does about 160km per day with the car, and checks the engine oil twice a day.

What should we do and how and where?

PLEASE HELP?

Yes relatively normal price.. It is a huge amount of work.
Of course with your location being a state secret one could not refer you to somebody.
