OK so I'm midway through a clutch change on my '00 Jetta where I decided to do rear main seal at same time. Old one seemed to be seeping at bottom so seemed a good call. Got the seal at dealership, had the guide, dropped the pan and really did it "by the book"
Had to travel for two weeks so coming back to install new flywheel clutch and this is what I see. Not sure what to do here. Looks worse than the old one honestly. The design of these seals confuses the heck out of me. The flare of the lip was towards the block and I assumed it's supposed to remain that way (otherwise why do you need the guide?) however friction would want to fold it the other way as you press the seal on. Can't see anything once installed.
Need some pointers as it doesn't seem a good idea to proceed here as much as I wanna get this job done.
