Hi,
I've just had the crown bearing replaced in my final drive as there was play and a big oil leak, however following a 270 mile ride yesterday, although that issue appears resolved, there now appears to be oil weeping very slightly from where the rear ABS sensor fits in the FD. I presume that the sensor will have been removed from the FD in order for the bearing repair to be completed, but when it was returned to its place in the FD I wonder if there's a gasket or something that now needs replacing, hence the weeping oil. The ABS appears to function as intended (or at least the lights on the dash do what they should).
Is there a gasket-y type thing between the sensor and the FD housing? Should I just try and nip it up, or is there a 'depth setting' that I'll screw up....I can't find an exploded diagram online that I trust... My Clymer manual is at my wife's uncle's house, and they're in Spain for the next 3 weeks....
Help!!!
Cheers,
Dave.
