[V8] Rear Main Seal

[Ingo D. Rautenberg]

Justin,

I think I have a spare at home.  I can check if you like and send it to you.
I bought two just in case I screwed one up.  I don't recall the seal being
the way you describe.  I could've sworn it has a double lip -- and with
spring.

> I got my RMS + plate from the dealer and after seeing the seal I am not
surprised they tend to go bad.  It looks and feels like it is made of some
sort of paper material.  Is this how all rear main seals are?  I would feel
a lot better if it was a regular spring loaded rubber type seal.  Do any
after market companies make a regular RMS for our car...BTDTs?  Not that I
don't totally trust those German engineers:)
