I have what I think is a rear main seal leak. I am taking the car into the shop this week for the repair. The car has 109,000 miles on it.

My question is regarding what I noticed today. While backing out of my driveway in reverse and coming to a stop on teh inclined I placed the car into park. Instead of stopping the car stiddered almost like teh ABS system was kicking in. There was no ice on the driveway today (in PA) but I just washed the car and it was very cold. I did it again when I checked for ice on the driveway. Could the rear main leak have an effect on the trans when going into park. Anything I should ask the shop to look at while the rear main is being worked? The trans and the engine have never been opened before so if there are any parts that need replacing at this time I'd love to hear you thoughts.

Thanks
