freelander 1.8gs Balmoral oil leaks

Hi All,
I,m looking for a bit advice regarding 2 leaks,
1; there is a small leay at the sump, does a special sealer have to be used when replacing the sump?
2;the diff pinion seal is leaking, is this a hard job?
Thanks
Colin

yes there is a special sealant for the sump but most instant gasket will do the trick.

pinion oil seal is easy to change, remove the prop from the diff, undo the big nut on the pinion, pull the flange off, prise the seal out, tap new seal in so its level with the face of the diff, fit the flange and dog it up tight, the flange will push the seal to the correct depth when you tighten it. Top the diff oil up.
