I recently purchase a 1998 camry LE from a small-time dealer. I found out after I bought the car that it is leaking oil. It looks like it is between the engine and the transmission, thouh I am not sure. The dealer I bought it from told me that if it is the rear-main seal it is covered by warranty, since the car has less than 50,000miles. What kind of warranty is the 5 years 60000 miles deal. what my best option.<br><br>thanks

I recently had the same problem on my 96 Cam. The rear main oil seal was bad. If it's covered by the warranty...get it done. If not...look to spend about $700 to do it. Also, while you have them replace that seal...have them replace the front transmission seal too. They should only tack on the price of the seal since they have to drop the tranny to get to the rear engine seal. If not...you will look to pay another $700 later on to replace the tranny seal. Trust me on this one. As far as your warranty goes...you'll have to go to the dealer to find out if that would be covered. Read the paperwork concerning your warranty too, that way they don't try to dupe you.
