If you can confirm it is the seal(s) that are leaking - yes, they (technically) can be replaced without dropping the engine. However, beware - I did this job last year, and even with a lift it was tedious.
See this link for tips: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=26033 If you decide to go this route, I can post some photos I took when I did the job so you can see what you're up against. |
