Hello, I am pleased to say outside from regular maintenance like replacing brakes and halfshafts, I have not had to do hardly any work on our 1995 auto honda civic.

This last time that I replaced the passenger side halfshaft, the seal began leaking (on a car that has never leaked any fluids).

I replaced the seal, only to have it leak worse.

I figured I must have not got the halfshaft back in all the way, so I took everything apart for the third time. I think I might have not been pushing the seal in completely. Put it back together and it worked fine.

Well.... Now it's two months later and I have the same seal leaking.

I am beginning to wonder if the halfshaft was not machined properly. I was assured that those surfaces are new, and not machined from old rebuilt returns, but it's the only thing I can think of.

If anyone can shed some light on this tricky leak, I'll owe you big!
