Change the rear seal once again.

make sure the seal fits tightly against the yoke and tight in the tail housing.

its not that tight on the yoke do they make different sizes. one guy segested a seal and sleve kit but i dont know how reliable that is

Is it possible to overfill? my T5 done the same thing after 2 new seals. I just let it leak and made sure it didnt go dry and it finally quit and I havent had any problems. But one would think that it shouldnt leak period.:cool1:

feel the yoke to see if there are any rough spots like groves worn it is seems like a bushing to me.

if you took it to my work we more than likely would have told you if hte slip yoke were bad or not
