After having a leaky front seal for months, My dad finally convinced me to bring it to the mechanic he has been using for the last couple decades. And I get the impression hes jerking me about.
I did tons of research on the subject, watched DIYs, read the forms. And was convinced with my mechanical aptitude I could rent the tools and change out the front seal my self. If I had the time...
My dad just called me and said that its gonna be around 500$ (not the 300 quoted) because the front seal has to come from the dealer, and comes as a set with a new harmonic balancer.
Is this BS? Nothing in the last few months of research lead me to believe that to be true.
