Hey, since I didn't get any response before, and was back in there
today and hoping to finish this up this week, just checking with
anyone's who's done this recently. I bought seal #8("oil" seal to
flange) and when I removed the flange(with the magnetic plastic
speedo ring on it), it's all packed with grease, and looking into the
hole, there's a bearing(also packed with grease) and a circlip....no
gear oil. There appears to be another oil seal(#32) behind the
bearing(#5 and simply listed as "no replacement"). Left side
appears to be the leaker side, so just trying to do it while I'm in
there and since I see no gear oil in the hole, then maybe it's
#32). Anyway, I did this on the Lago car 10 yrs ago, but probably
just did that outer seal. Just wondering if that speedo ring area is
supposed to be "dry" and greased, or wet with gear oil.....Also, that
inner seal is listed as 018 409 399H, and I've got 2 seals for the 5-
speed listed @ 016 409 399B......just wondering if anyone know's if
those are actually the same seal. I just want to sell it, but want
to do whatever I can while it's apart to make it right.... Tom
