Thanks guys, my M6 has a tailshaft seal leak. Just swapped out the shifter a few weeks back and actually thought the leak was coming from the stocker. It wasn't. I can see now that its the tailshaft seal itself.

Is there a sticky or writeup somewhere on replaceing the tailshaft seal? I searched and spotted reference to one, but never saw it anywhere.

 

The seal and boot come out together just pry on it..

 

Cool, sounds easy enough.

Anyplace in particular I should get the replacement seal from????

Dealer only, or generic parts store fine to?

 

I'm sure some parts store seal would be fine..

 

Heres the whole T56 manual if you want to look at it.. the diagram for the seal is on page 3-19

We have the seal with the boot for $25 shipped. I don't like to use the ones from the parts stores as they do no have the boot on them. They give you the cheap one that will leak over time.

Thanks,
