Get it done, the last thing you want is for the Rear main oil seal to go, mine went and it cost me a small fortune to get it replaced.

Does engine flush help alleviate this problem or is it a change or risk it job. Would this have blown the turbo oil return seal? Have oil dripping from where the engine and gearbox meet, but not dumping puddles of oil on the floor, just drips, so can't be the RMS, as people say this leaves puddles under the car!
