Default Rear Main Seal Leak

1997 Dodge Neon, has a rear main oil leak, wondering how much it would cost to fix, and how to do it yourself, or if its just worth paying a mechanic to fix it, and how much would that cost as well. Thanks

I charge $300 to replace the rear main on a neon. you can do it yourself for the price of parts ( www.autozone.com , www.napaonline.com etc. ) .

you need tools, equipment, patience, mechanical aptitude, knowledge and skills to do this job besides the rear main seal.
