I posted this on a local forum here in South Africa, doesnt seem like it got much appreciation. I thought I'd share it with you guys though as you have helped me a lot with my Jeep questions so far. I put together a few things for you guys to look out for when shopping around for a used Jeep...

Hi guys, now a Jeep doesnt leak oil, it marks its territory :brows: However, I had a rear main seal leak beginning of the year which I had replaced but it started leaking again. Is this a very common issue, should I just leave it? Its bad but not bad enough that I notice any drop in the oil...
