Alan Broadbent Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 I have lots of grease/oil dripping down one of the swivels and onto the tyre. I assume that there is a faulty seal somewhere! Can anybody confirm and give advice? Thanks Alan Quote
adam300Tdi90 Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 confirmed... If the oil/grease is on the ball itself, it's the swivel seal that runs on the (should be) smooth surface of the swivel ball. see here If your balls aren't rusty and If your balls ARE rusty If just the wheel/tyre is oily it could be the hub seal, so see here - Hub seal replacement It's easy to see which (out of the two above) is leaking, get under there..
