Axle Seal Shaft Leak.
Hey everyone
Question - went to my mechanic today for an oil change and we noticed a slight leak at the axel point passenger front. Mechanic said get a axle shaft seal which I found on FCP. I asked him should I get fluid too and he said yeah.
My question is, - What type of fluid do I need and how much do i need? if this is the axle leaking a little do I lose a bunch of fluid when swapping out the seal?

Olja
Hej
Fuchs Titan Sintopoid FE 75W-85 är korrekt olja samt slå I 3% omega 917 av oljemängden som är 0.55 liter.
Ofta behöver man ej riva sönder o byta packningar när man slagit i 3% 917 som reagerar på värme oftast är lekaget borta vid några dagars långkörnig med bilen.
Hjäpt mig och andra många gånger
Googla på omega 917

Hi Fuchs Titan Sintopoid FE 75W-85 is the correct oil and add 3% omega 917 to the oil amount which is 0.55 liters.
Often you don't need to tear apart or change gaskets when you add 3% 917 which reacts to heat, usually the leak is gone after a few days of long driving with the car. Helped me and others many times
