The rear main seal is leaking oil on the exhaust pipe and causing it to smoke when idling. Please give me an estimate to repair icluding labor and time.
thanks

You are looking at around 6 hours of labor at whatever the shop rate is to remove and reinstall the trans, plus around $30 - $40 for the seal depending on if they go aftermarket or OEM (Dealer)
