Thread: Different type of oil leak

Gday All,
Been trying to find the cause of an oil trace in the carport for ages..
Its been coming from the drivers side and the colour of the oil made me think brake fluid..But haven't added any so was dumbfounded really, thought maybe PS fluid somehow running across the car on the top of the diff or something..

Fitting the front prop shaft last night noticed the inside of the drive wheel arch was wet, but as it had been raining thought it could've been the humidity...

Checked today and it was the jack...it had leaked all the hyd oil out in its cubby hole behind the battery...

Something to keep in mind..

Cheers Ean

Yes same thing happened to me.
Was leaking from around the bleed screw ( I think thats what you call it ).
Couple of dollars for a new rubber seal from the local bearing shop and all fixed.
