It's best to drop the oil pan before installing the seal plate so you're not smearing the bottom bead of RTV/ Honda bond. The oil pan can then be pressed directly onto the engine without any smearing of the RTV bead
You can lift the plate up and over the crank, then set it down on that bottom ledge with little to no smearing. That is if you didn't press in the seal in beforehand. But yes, if you're this far into an engine might as well re-seal the whole oil pan while you're at it
When many J-series V6 engines last to 500k, it's a good idea to go ahead and get the rear main seal and O'ring replaced, even if the vehicle has over 300k on the odometer. Thanks for the informative video.
lmao. 3:45 mark "this o-ring is not compromised it's just flat, honda/acura o-rings just flatten out over time, see it's just flat" Great video covering the RMS and o-replacement, glad you skipped the removing the engine part.
Thanks for showing this. have about 200,000 miles on my V6 2005 Accord and that rear seal leaks a bit, but luckily not too bad. I just need to top off by about half a quart between oil changes.
My 2017 V6 Accord's rear main seal just started leaking at 300,000 miles. I don't have the right to complain 😅
good vid....this helped me understand and isolate my leak.....thanks for your efforts
this was informative!
Thank you for the video, you make it seems easy job. Unfortunately for me I took my Acura and Mdx to the shop almost a month ago and it seems like the Mechanic is having a lot of trouble to finish the job. I’m a little nervous thinking if my car will work the same again.
How many hours did it take to remove, repair and reassemble?
Is there an additive that you might recommend for those who have a slow leak and want to stop the leak but not cause swelling of other seals/o-rings? Does such an additive exist?
Not for this job.
I tried ATP at-205 reseal because I saw alot of people say it works but I can't say it stopped my leak but it seems to have slowed it down for sure. I don't like to use additives but I can't get to my rear main until spring so I tried something to get my till then. They sell it at advanced auto parts but not auto zone
Great job with the video, I’m planning on doing this and was just thinking about the rear main seal. Have you seen 2009 pilot engines cherry-picked from the top? I only seen them removed from the bottom with a lift… thanks!
What is the part number for the O ring on a 2005 Honda Accord 3.0 V Tech Engine.
The replacement oring is smaller than the original. It won't seal the high pressure oil. Is there a possibility the replacement oring is not the correct size?
Once you lay the bead do you spread it with your fingers
@Bundysgarage hiii sir . I have a question I have a oil leak underneath my MDX. My MDX was leaking from multiple points but here what I already changed a timing belt kit with all the camshaft seal, the 3 of them I also replaced oil pump gasket and oil filter housing gasket. I was cheking for leaks from the camshaft plug seal o ring but it’s dry not leaks. I inspected the valve cover gasket not leaks. But I see oil running down the oil pan and in the transmission between engine and transmission. So my question is can a rear main seal leak travel down to the oil pan , transmission and oil pan bolt? Thank you .
Do you know if that trans is used in the 06 Oddesy as well?
I know this is an old video, but im doing this now trying to teach myself and hoping for some help. When removing the seal retainer or rear main seal housing i didnt notice any residual honda bond above the o-ring. When applying would it need to be applied above as well? I know it is a mating surface, but wasnt sure specifically for that area, im assuming nothing on the inner mating surface near the crank as well. Also, i noticed what appreared to be pink threadlock on the housing bolts, do you use hondalock 2ht when reinstalling? Sorry for the long comment. Any help would be appreciated.
I would recommend removing the oil pain before installing the rear cover
Why
I would assume it's because the oil pan in its current position will scrape off the RTV while installing the the cover plate. If the oil pan is dropped you can then properly bring the surfaces together rather than scrape them by each other
No need to. You can bring the plate up and over with very little smearing. Just don't install the seal before installing the plate
Ok got it, remove the oil pain. 😂
Hi, what's the rear main seal honda part number?
So my shopping list consist of ?
Possible to change the o-ring and the main rear seal WITHOUT taking out the entire engine?
Why does everyone say that. I'm giving you free advice/info and all any ones bitches about is that the motor is out of the car. I'm showing you what to do. If the engine is in the car, you have to drop the transmission, hold the engine in place so it doesn't drop down and then replace the seal.
I had to replaced Rear Main Seal on my 2007 Honda Accord V6. Its all day work and cost me $1500 at Honda's Dealership.
I'm getting my trans rebuilt right now for 3k including rear main. I feel like I'm getting a steal now lmao 🤣
Keep up with the videos!!
I will, please keep watching.
how do you do this without taking out the engine?
The transmission must be removed to do this.
thanks for the vid
What should be a fair price for replacing rear main seal and oil pump tube seal on a 2003 mdx at a shop?
About 2500.00
Ugh… what the hell… $2500 for a car you don’t know how long it’s gonna last…240k miles on mine
does the lines going towards to the crank need to be rtv too ?
I have an 01 V6 accord and I’m actually getting my rear main seal changed out because it’s leaking. Should I make sure to inform my mechanic to change out that O-ring on the top as well as the rear main seal?
Yes
@@bundysgarage thank you I’m glad I watched your video and double checked with you personally!! I don’t want to have to have him dismantle the transmission again if there’s a little leak still and then having to pay more labor fees over a part that costs $5 to $10!!
You forget to put your guide pin!
Are you in NYC I bring my car to your place I thing my main seal is leaking
So show me how you put the main seal into the cover.
Block of wood and tap it in...
Nice vid. Do you have to drain the oil prior to removing the rear main seal or it's not necessary?
Not necessary, but not a bad idea to do it since you may have gotten contaminants inside the engine while doing this
@@supersabrosinho What I did was to run the engine once with the old oil after reassembly, get it up to temperature, then drain the oil and replace the filter so any contaminants are removed with the oil and filter change.
Lol the duh got me.
How much does this repair cost roughly?
2500 to 3000.
How much is that job bro.?
It's pretty expensive, you have to drop the whole transmissions. If you have a small leak I have seen good results with ATP-AT205 Re-Seal (just keep in mind if the rear main seal is ripped or torn it might not work) SEE IT HERE: amzn.to/3hhZNEc
@@bundysgarage Thanks for the reply. Have a nice day.
Did u have to remove the oil pan to do this job
Negative
I just changed the transfer case fluid on my 2014 MDX and I noticed oil leaking from the top of it. I checked the oil pan and transmission pan and no leak. I checked the head gasket and was ok. Do you know of another leak area that’s above the transfer case or could it be the rear main seal. Thanks for all your videos
I'd say your rear main is leaking or that oil port seal. I just chased that same leak down and after I did all my oil pump seals, valve covers, and oil pan I still have a leak up above my passenger axle seal area. I'm doing my rear main next. Make sure you check your rear camshaft cover seal before you do the main just to make sure. It's also a common leak up in that area.
The technical name for the camshaft cover is thrust plate o ring
Do I need to drain my oil when taking the cover plate off?
No, unless the oil was overfilled
I heard that 350z with that shit exhaust just saying…… amazing video tho thank you 🙏
Would mechanics actually know to do this? I feel like if you ask for this they would think you’re extra
I got an odyssey 2010. I had to perform a heads service and when started it, oil pressure light came on and valves were not getting oil. Any advice?
Did you put the head gasket on right?
I think they only fit one way and they have an R for the rear one and an F for the front one. I removed the rocker arm oil pressure switch and started it and no oil came out.
A very expensive repair.
Bro how are you going to show how to do remove a seal without having it the motor already installed how is that making sense when you show her how to video you need to show from beginning to end not show on a motor that you have on a cherry picker on a desk already
You gotta take the motor out to do this? Dang it
No you don’t have to take the engine out of the vehicles but you do need to remove the transmission to get access to the rear main seal.
you didnt show anything
