At times, there occur lubricant leaks due to wear of the wheel seals which is easy to replace because repairs can be performed without removing the transaxle from the vehicle. These seals are positioned on both sides of the transaxle where the inner Constant Velocity (CV) joints are splined into the differential. If leakage at the seal is suspected, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. If there is a leak in the seal, fluid will be present on that side of the transaxle. Remove drive axles. In case you're replacing the right side Wheel Seal, remove the intermediate shaft too. Using a suitable prybar or screwdriver, carefully pry the oil seal out of the transaxle bore. A special oil seal removal tool (available at auto parts stores) may be necessary if this fails using a screwdriver or prybar. Use a large deep socket as a drift or a seal driver to install the new oil seal. It must be driven squarely into the bore until it seats flush with the transaxle case. Apply multi-purpose grease to the lip of the new seal before installing it onto the drive axle assembly. The lip of the new seal should not be damaged during its installation process though being cautious about that is crucial. Check the level of lubricant in the transmission; add as needed.
