Rear Main Oil Seal for Porsche
Restore engine sealing integrity and prevent costly oil
leaks with this OE Match Rear Main Oil Seal for the Porsche 964, Porsche 993
and Porsche 996. Manufactured to OE specifications and measuring 90mm inner
diameter, 110mm outer diameter and 12mm width, this critical engine seal is
designed to prevent engine oil escaping around the rear of the crankshaft where
it exits the engine case and connects to the flywheel assembly.

Diagram Ref No. 21
The rear main oil seal, often referred to as the RMS (Rear Main Seal), is one of the most important sealing components in the engine. It retains engine oil inside the crankcase while allowing the crankshaft to rotate at high speed. A worn or damaged seal can lead to oil leaks, clutch contamination and unnecessary engine maintenance costs if left unattended.
This OE Match replacement provides the correct fit, sealing performance and durability required for maintenance, engine rebuilds and preventative servicing.
What Does the Rear Main Oil Seal Do?
The rear main oil seal forms a seal around the rear section of the crankshaft.
Its primary functions include:
- Preventing engine oil leaks
- Sealing the rear crankshaft opening
- Protecting the flywheel area from contamination
- Maintaining correct engine oil levels
- Preventing oil reaching the clutch assembly
- Supporting long-term engine reliability
- Allowing smooth crankshaft rotation
Without a properly functioning rear main seal, oil can escape from the engine and create a range of reliability issues.
Why Do Rear Main Oil Seals Fail?
Like all rubber sealing components, rear main oil seals are subject to wear and ageing.
Common causes of failure include:
- Heat cycling
- Age-related hardening
- Crankshaft wear
- Engine vibration
- Long-term oil exposure
- Improper installation
- Excessive crankcase pressure
- High mileage use
Over time, the sealing lip can lose flexibility and its ability to maintain consistent contact with the crankshaft surface.
Symptoms of a Failing Rear Main Oil Seal
Common warning signs include:
- Oil leaks between engine and gearbox
- Oil drips beneath the vehicle
- Oil contamination around the flywheel housing
- Clutch slip caused by oil contamination
- Burning oil smell
- Gradual oil level loss
- Oil residue on transmission bellhousing
Because the seal is located behind the flywheel, leaks can often be mistaken for other engine oil leaks unless properly diagnosed.
When Should the Rear Main Oil Seal Be Replaced?
Replacement is recommended when:
- Oil leakage is present
- The gearbox is being removed
- Replacing the clutch assembly
- Rebuilding the engine
- Refurbishing the crankshaft
- Carrying out preventative maintenance
- The original seal shows signs of ageing
- Engine mileage is high
Many Porsche specialists recommend replacing the rear main seal whenever the clutch or flywheel is removed, as labour access is significantly easier during these procedures.
Why Replacement Matters
A leaking rear main oil seal can lead to far more expensive repairs if ignored.
Benefits of replacement include:
- Prevention of engine oil leaks
- Protection of the clutch assembly
- Improved engine cleanliness
- Reduced maintenance costs
- Improved reliability
- Professional rebuild standards
- Long-term sealing performance
- Greater peace of mind
Replacing the seal during clutch or engine work is considered a smart preventative maintenance measure.

The timing section of the Porsche 944/968 engine contains critical rotating components including the camshaft, balance shafts and crankshaft, all protected by covers and seals at the front of the engine. The OE Match dust seal and gasket set provides the sealing elements required when servicing this area.
The kit includes seals and gaskets designed to prevent contamination and leakage around the timing housing. These components are typically replaced during timing belt service, front engine resealing or engine rebuild work.
High-quality gasket materials are used to withstand the temperature, oil exposure and mechanical stresses present in performance engines.
Function
• Leak Prevention: Seals the front timing housing to prevent oil leakage
• Component Protection: Keeps dust and debris away from timing components
• Engine Reliability: Supports proper operation of camshaft and balance shafts
• Service Solution: Ideal for timing belt replacement or front engine rebuild
Seals and gaskets around the timing assembly are exposed to heat, oil and constant engine vibration. Over time these components can harden, crack or lose elasticity, leading to oil leaks or contamination of the timing area. Replacing them during maintenance helps protect the timing components and maintain engine reliability.
Consider replacing the timing dust seal and gasket set when:
• Performing a timing belt replacement
• Rebuilding or resealing the front of the engine
• Oil leaks appear from the timing cover area
• Old seals show cracking or deterioration
