1. The flywheel side seal can be replaced as described in Chapter 3. The seal can be replaced after removing the gearbox with the engine installed. Remove the clutch, flywheel and old seal; carefully hammer the new one into place.
2. The oil seal in the camshaft drive cover is replaced in the same way as described in Chapter 3. Center the oil seal and install the camshaft drive cover. When replacing the oil seal on an installed engine, follow the instructions in Chapters 19 and 20 until the camshaft drive cover is removed. Then remove the old oil seal and install the new one. Apply grease to the working surface of the oil seal.

3. Replace the flywheel side seal. To replace the seal on an installed engine, remove the transmission, clutch, and flywheel (in case of automatic transmission, unscrew the drive pulley) and pull out the old seal using a screwdriver.
4. Drive in the new seal using a punch. Be careful when using other tools.
5. Reassemble in reverse order. Observe the tightening torque specified for the flywheel, clutch or drive pulley bolts.
6. The seal at the front of the crankshaft can be replaced with the engine installed. To get closer to the seal, remove all installed drive belts and the crankshaft timing belt pulley.
7. Turn the crankshaft so that the woodruff key is at the top and remove the old oil seal with a screwdriver, without damaging the camshaft drive cover.
8. Lubricate the new seal with engine oil and carefully tap it into the camshaft cover and onto the crankshaft. Make sure the woodruff key is correctly positioned and fit the pulley. Lubricate the threads and tighten the nut to 180 Nm.
