Boot rams (On boot lid) leaking

Post by leegsi »

The boot rams (On boot lid) are leaking.

The right angle hard pipes going in seem to be where its leaking and you can move them.

Checked some of the other pipes and they move too but no leaking.

How can I stop the leak? Are there 'O' rings?

Remove the fitting and have a look at the o rings. It may have gone hard or split
