I found a really nice TT 6sp. Brought it to the mech, and he found lots oil along the whole tranny. From what I read here, it might be the rear main seal. We are going to look at the car again today. PLease tell me what else to look for. How much does it cost to fix it?

Also, it is worth it to buy ext. warranty on a 93 TT? I am not going to mod it.

Thanks alot!!

warranty is about a 1k

did you do a compresion check ?

If rear main seal fails, clutch is toast as well.

#1 thing to check is cylinder compression (or even better, leak-down). I would buy a warranty on a 93, make sure it's "unlimited mileage" and that it fully covers all moving parts, with minimal deductible.

Does Lemond Buster do a compression test? The mech is just doing me a favor, not charging me any $. So he is not going to do compression test for me.

Anyone has a good ext warranty company to recommend?

Thanks.
