Oil leak

Well i just got my holden rodeo lx 1998 serviced the other day to find that it is leaking oil from the front and rear crankshaft seals. I wasnt given a quote so I was just wondering if anyone could tell me the approximate value of getting it repaired.

cheers guys

rodeo oil leaks

v6, 4 diesel or petrol

pretty sure you can not get the sump off without removing the entire engine. Personally would not do front or back seals without doing the sump at the same time as any future leaks will be blamed on the sump which is probably half the problem atm. 

Pull the motor or don't bother.

I personally would wait for the clutch to go, then pull the donk and do the seals or wait until it implodes
