ok so i just want to see who else has.....or had this problem. i replaced my rear main 2 years ago when i did the re-build, turns out my rear main was leaking, i drove for the two years with it leaking (very slight leak) and about a month ago i did my clutch and decided to replace the rear main again. when i replaced it it was hard to tell if it was the rear main or the aluminum backing plate seal. i replaced both and used some gray silicone gasket maker also.....just to be sure. well sure enough its leaking again!
i think i may have a problem with my PCV system. just a thought. has anybody else ever have this problem? thanks.
