Well I just got this Z32 but it came with a rear main seal leak. does anyone know if the seal set at advanced Auto would do just fine or is there something better. Also do I need to drop the oil pan to do this, i have never had to do this kind of job before so anything would really help

Thanks guys

Go to the dealer and get it. I would also check to see if it is indeed the rear main seal or just loose oil pan bolts.

I had the car checked by a friend that was going to do it for me but his shop is too packed at this time. But he said it is deff the main leaking, the bolts were actually the first thing we check because the same thing happen to my tracer last time the pan was pulled

It sucks, you gotta pull the trans.

But I dont have to pull the oil pan off do I ?

Depends on if it's the rear seal or the back of the oil pan gasket.

From what I have seen, no.

Either way the answer is no.

Never had a problem with redline, royal purple, lucas or amsoil.
