I understand the difference, I just dont know in which direction does the oil flow.
Oil doesn't flow to either, it is delivered via splash.

hang with me for a second:

If it works like this: the oil from the motor, goes through the bearing
Which bearing??

Quote:
and then to the rear seal, then to the garage floor... more oil on ther floor would be good in that the old motor oil is not blocked from "passing through" and does not back up inside the bearing
No... You are associating the seals.. They are not associated at all. Two different components..

OR

Quote:
the oil goes to the real seal area, and then pools, then seeps into the bearing, and into the tube, and back out the tube pass the bearing. In that case the rear seal leak would have not much to do with failure.
Nope... The oil that gets into the IMS isn't coming from the RMS.

Also why does porsche not just recall the cars and fix the issues and thier reputation by doing the retrofit as a recall.
That would be admission that a problem actually exists..

Deny, Deny, Deny...
