So I performed an RMS the best way I know how. Drove the Jeep a couple days and dry as a bone.
I took a road trip after a few days putting around town and on the way back home 350+ miles the Jeep puked oil, left a spot about 6” in diameter, oil was splattered all along the bottom of the tranny and dripping from the back of the skid plate even…
Well, I needed to use the Jeep for work, so I checked the oil and the level seems right where I left it after refilling but the leak stopped! Been driving for 4 days so far this week and no more leak! The bottom is still a mess but no more leak …
I bought a new RMS but wondering if this thing fixed itself or what ?!?! Never seen this before. I’ve never failed to do an RMS, but I’ve only done 3 or 4.
To answer the inevitable questions;
The Jeep is a 2005, so the RMS without tabs
I used a anerobic sealant on the main seal
Clocked the RMS and put a little dab of sealant on the ends of the RMS halves.
So change or not to change, THAT is the question.
