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.

If the seals are removed before fitting a new bearing it means the ims shaft will then be able to fill with oil as it sits below the level, I can see this as a good thing but only if it doesn’t blast it up through the aos or create to much oil pressure. See picture how much more oil do yous think it may take . Or will it be fine
Negligible additional oil
It fills with oil anyway. Those seals are oil tight, just dust covers.
I'll measure the oil going back in up to the full mark on dip stick and see how much more it took. Feel free to guess
about 0.3mm
