If the rear engine seal leaks it needs to be replaced.

The car is still driving, can I take it to you, can you give me your location, and how much will you charge to replace the seal?
Many thanks.
Regards,
Mervyn

Any transmission shop or the dealership should be able to give you an estimate for that.

But I don't recommend driving it at all, especially if it has been leaking for a while. It's best to have it towed to the closest specialist in your area some of them might offer a free tow check online to find the closest best one to you. Call around it helps sometimes to just talk to a technician on the phone to help you decide. Good luck hope this helps "

Here is how to do the job so you can see what needs to be done to fix the problem. MECHTRIX is correct that you need to remove the transmission to do the job which I have included as well so you can see what you are paying for. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.
