I have an oil leak that's collecting on the bottom of my pan and losing more and more oil everyday. I'm pretty sure it's the front main seal, can this be replaced with the engine and crank in the car?

I think I'm going to need to replace the head so I was wondering if anyone had any input on replacing this seal as I really don't want to pull the engine if I don't have to.

Thanks,
Tim

see if it is the seal forsure, cause i thought mine was leaking, but i redid the oil pan gasket and voila no more leak. Just a thought.

You can do it with the engine still in the car no problem.

yeah, it should be able to get to rather easily by just removing the oil pan and a few other parts.

Don't even need to remove the oil pan to change the front seal on an LX, it's that easy.
