Does anyone know how hard it is to change the rear seal on a 2000 Max?I think mine may be leaking and my mechanic said it is a 10 to 12 hr. job to change it out, is this true, is it really that difficult?

The RMS is only @ $50 but it's the labor that's expensive - need to drop transmission, oil pan and Y-pipe. Cost ranges from $500-1500, depending on where work will be done.
