740 valve noise/piston slap 700


Hi Chris,

My main concern about using the synthetic oil is that the '89 16 V already has some oil leaks. The bellhousing of the transmission/rear of the engine stays soaked. I'm thinking maybe it's the rear main seal leaking. I don't see any other leaks though. I'm not sure that I want to pull the transmission right now to fix the leak since it isn't that bad. Then again, it would be better than trying to do it this winter.

Cheers,
Dave
