WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CAUTION: Do not apply oil to the circumference of the oil seal and oil seal pressing hole on the cylinder block side to prevent teeth from pulling out.

After applying a small amount of engine oil to the oil seal lip, use special tool MD998718 to press fit the oil seal.
