Sadly i think ive seen where its coming from, after jacking up the rear, second vid on its way Big Cry
clutching at straws here, but does the second pipe connector at the end of the vid look like it MAY and i say May in the hope of a cheap fix, be coming from the O-ring??



I can clearly see a drip around the O-ring connection on the inside pipe, and hope its the culprit



quick wipe and test drive.

When mine leaked like that it required a full replacement... Sad

Fingers crossed yours doesn't 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Sounds about right. It's £800-900 for the anti roll bar and then a lot of labour - it's a body off job I believe. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Take out a warranty and leave it a couple of weeks then "find" the problem?

The TDV8 has a slightly larger unit than that fitted to other models. That's probably why it's a bit pricier too. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed
