Front Crank seal goes at about 100k..

Best to change it along with 2nd cambelt change..

I do wonder what is going to happen with the 60k cambelt change cars as they are possibly all going to have to do the second belt change early to do the leaking crank seal..

MY97 has done 82K and had front of engine cam cover seals done 4 months ago and just both rocker cover seals replaced after biggish (smelling) leaks. Replaced cam belt at same time. Matti
