Discussion:
driveshaft seal

seal was leaking on right driveshaft. I have pulled the driveshaft/brake assembly. The seal is visible behind a plate with four studs (see my avatar photo). I can't get the plate loose. I'm wondering if it's more than a plate, maybe a capsule holding bearings, etc. Does anyone have a diagram of this? Is this something I can remove without getting into the transmission? Someone for sure has gotten that far into it????

P.S. - I continued a discussion on the C30 forum that was talking about the brakes. I should discontinue that one.

so I got a parts diagram from the dealer and it showed what I was getting into. Pulled it with a slide hammer. Had a tough time removing seal from bearing carrier (that's what the part's called I had to remove). Ordered new seals ($2 each) and some brake shoes. Should be a cheap fix. Now if it would only stop raining!!!

Fact of the week
Funerals in Spain typically occur within 24 to 48 hours of death, whereas in other European countries they wait one or more weeks. This rapid timeframe is a cultural norm grown from the past need to manage the warm climate without modern embalming.
