I saw your post and have been trying ( unsuccessfully) to locate the article I
remember reading a few years ago about the dual-seal repair. I believe it came
from

not
had to replace the original seal in my car which has 56k ( knock on wood) miles.
I'll try to locate my copy for you. I'm fairly sure that's where I saw it.
