[QUOTE="Vincent Hor, post: 594780, member: 1221"] I checked with Albert today. In case members are not aware, replacing the flywheel oil seal requires the exhaust, long shaft & gearbox to be taken down. Yes it may be a small & cheap item but it's really labour intensive. Gb filter also replaced. As for the oil sump gasket, the whole sub frame was removed too. The process avoids excessive bending of all the control arms. Not all mechanics willing to remove the sub frame. Add servicing the car too. Your choice get a slip shot job for cheap & end up replacing those control arms. Therefore is the labour too much or reasonable? [/QUOTE]
