Having today had the car MOTed, I have an oil leak from the rear main oil seal. I live in the Aylesbury area and are looking for recommendations of firms to do the work at a reasonable cost. Thanks

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Are you sure it's the RMS check the bottom of the tiptronic bellhousing there is a hole right in the middle underneath when the output shaft seal starts to leak fluid runs down and out of this hole and it's very commonly mistaken as a RMS or IMS cover leak. It would be wise to change this seal at the same time as the gearbox has to out anyway they're only £20
