I new that I had an oil leak, but I hoped it was the RMS (even though it was replaced about 2000 miles ago under warranty). No such luck. After pulling the tranny, there it was. IMS Leaking.

I got my kit from LNE today. Hopefully all goes well. I'm also going replace the inner CV joints while I'm at it.
If your IMS seal is leaking, it's just the seal that needs replacing, no?
