SubscriberIit's been two weeks and I have my first warranty issue.
My mechanic friend was checking the 110 out and noticed grease coming from the inside of the front left hand wheel. Actually alot of grease was spewing out of the bearing or joint whatever it is flying up the inside guards and leaking down the wheel Took it to Land Rover and they have booked it in for next week to replace the seals.
Not overly bummed apart from the fact they told me I should probably to stay off the sand this weekend or until its fixed. Other then that, all is good.
Is the seal issue common or just a one off?
Cheers.

I'm guessing its grease leaking from the swivel seal because the preload is insufficient. I'm sure greater minds than mine will chime in shortly...

at least it seems to actually have some grease in there....

SupporterMy Puma 130 had the leaking front right swivel housing seals replaced twice under warranty, without success. This was from brand new. The complete hub assembly was changed out to solve the problem. The original had "fautly machining", causing the grease to leak. No amount of seal replacements would have stopped it.
All good now, but frustrating at the time

Subscriberhaha I have heard of another guys 110 have no grease on one side. Hence why when I was at the service center I asked them to check if there was any on the other wheel just in case that is the reason why it wasn't leakingOriginally Posted by justinc

Hopefully it will only need a seal replacement. Otherwise, maybe it will need
rebuilding like Grappler said.
Cheers.

Cheers.. Build quality and QC isn't their strong point with Puma models. Make sure you also go around and check ALL the suspension for tightness, especially the sway bar link bolts.
And you know what they say; 'if it aint leakin its empty'
