Default Bad clutch disc

I finally got my transmission off. The rivets holding the disc together sheared off.
for a few weeks before it died it would make a single pop noise starting from a stop. I thought it might be trans mounts or engine mount.

Impressive! It looks like your rear main seal or IMS bearing seal has been leaking for a while. Lots of oil contamination and looks like it was slipping.

This looks like one of those repairs that will mean a huge improvement in performance.

Wasn't really slipping before. RMS was definitely leaking quite a bit.
I sprayed it with water to try and reduce dust before pulling it off.
