[AT] OT - oil stop leak

[Charles L Bachman]

Hi Mike,

You can purchase a lot of oil for $1600.  My 2002 Safari with 220.000 miles
needs a $600 job to possibly stop an oil leak.  I check the oil level often.

Subject: [AT] OT - oil stop leak

Hi, all, my wife has a 2010 Camry with 165,000 miles, it runs and drives
like new. I noticed some oil puddles on the garage floor and when i crawled
under it, it looked like it was coming from the transmission. 
Took it to the shop and they diagnosed as a leaking rear engine seal. 
Cost to fix it, $1600, they need to drop the engine and transmission. 
$140 is parts and the rest is labor. I'm not a big fan of stop leak
products, but in this case, she can park on a piece of OSB to soak up the
oil and Ill just have to check it more often. Has any one here have any
experience with the stop leak products on the market? I really don't have
much to lose.

Thanks, Mike M
