Transmission mount and leaky bearing? Running issues. Long 200 1986

TRansmission tailshaft bushing and seal are shot. Very common, happens to all AW series transmissions. Parts run about $40 (from Volvo), less aftermarket perhaps.

A Volvo shop should have the special puller tool that makes this job a snap. Otherwise a shop needs to remove and clean up the whole tailshaft housing, involving a new gasket as well.

Keep in mind that the drive flange (yoke) can be worn, and may need to be replaced in order to get a seal again. Keep filling it up in the meantime, don't run it low.
