Its funny how my kid 7 acts...if i dont drive it for a couple days it breaks when i do drive it...i need to drive it everyday in order for it not to break, weird

anyways i broke my seal that lays in between the driveshaft and diff, now my question is whats the part number, i looked up mazdatrix and search the fsm, but they dont match up

i need the name or right part number of the seal ,

i though it was my oil drain line because when it went, my car was full of smoke because it got on the exhaust i was scared **** less but after the puddle started showing i made it home in a hurry, now i am afraid that my diff could of gone but i think i will be alright after i replace the seal and if turns out bad then i got another project to do

 

are you talking about hte pinion seal? thats the only seal behind the driveshaft flange.

 

either go to a parts house or the dealer, the dealer can get you the right part number if you give them the VIN number of the car. parts houses should be able to look it up by application.

 

thats what i thought the pinion seal but it says other wise in mazdatrix its the one that goes in between the tube and bearings

 

yes, it's called a pinion seal.

 

Thanks , $6.21 not bad but i think i am going to replace everything in the little area
