Pulling the engine and trans complete, seperating them, changing out the rear main seal, putting them all back together, and stuffing it back into the car and have it run inside of 10 hours!! I'd like to meet this guy. I have pulled 850 motors and I have done rear seals on them and all with the advantage of a complete Volvo repair facility and years of experience at my disposal. It is about a 3-4 hour job to put in a seal and it pays in the area of 8-10 hours to do it. If it is your first one and you have all of the tools you will spend the best part of a day doing it and I would not even consider doing one without the special tools and a hoist and transmission jack. I know it sucks but if you are not set up to do it you may just want to consider bitting the bullet a paying the ransom to have it done.
