ssm58 07-15-2005, 08:20 PM I posted here about 5 weeks ago that I had a small oil leak @ rear of engine. It is currently @ the dealer . Thay checked it out and found rear main was leaking, should have it back by tues. or wed. Don`t know if this is comon or not,99500 miles.thought some might be interested. GMCSLEHD 07-16-2005, 08:41 AM I had one too, collecting an ever so small amount of oil in the bellhousing. The had to pull the tranny back to get to it. They even warrantied the NSBU on a Suncoast III while at it. No more leaks!:) Josh blnagel 07-16-2005, 01:30 PM How much did it cost to R&R rear main? Mine is on the crapper. Ben ssm58 07-16-2005, 06:55 PM GM is picking it up under 100,00 warranty blnagel 07-16-2005, 07:44 PM I was just wondering that. It is engine related so I was thinking that. I am at 97K now so I am good. Did you need to convince them it was a warranty item or was it easy for them to do it under warranty? Ben 2K2AD 07-16-2005, 10:31 PM This is from the warranty booklet: 6.5L Diesel Engine and 6.6L Duramax Diesel Engine Components The complete engine assembly, including turbocharger components, is covered for defects in material or workmanship for 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. No deductible applies during this coverage period. The engine parts listed below continue to be covered (subject to a $100 deductible) for 5 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. Cylinder block and heads and all internal parts, intake and exhaust manifolds, timing gears, timing gear chain or belt and cover, flywheel, harmonic balancer, valve covers, oil pan, oil pump, water pump, fuel pump, engine mounts, seals and gaskets. Diesel Fuel Metering System: injection pump, nozzles, high pressure lines and high pressure sealing devices. Glow Plug Control System: control/glow plug assembly, glow plugs, cold advance relay, and ECM. NOTE: Some of the above components may also be covered by the Emission Warranty with no deductible (see pages 19 through 29 for details). Maybe it would help to have a copy of it with you just in case. Kevin blnagel 07-17-2005, 11:37 AM Thanks alot!
