Question: rear main seal leak

Question

Visitor, 3.5L V6, Sorrento, FL, March 03, 2010, 17:37

Vehicle was brought into Honda dealer and tech stated that he observed leak at rear main seal area. Truck has 75,000 miles, I thought this happened only to American cars not Hondas! Tech put dye in it and stated to come back at 500 miles to verify leak. The truck is out of warranty and I'm not paying for this type of repair. No drips on garage floor for past four years.

    My 2006 developed a rear main seal leak at 111,000 miles. I confirmed where it was coming from with the dye. I normally fix these things myself but it's winter here in Kansas and I'm in a hurry so I took it to an independent shop. Will probably cost about $800 when all cost are figured in. I'll update when I get it back.
