200/300 tdi discos

strapping young lad:
my hub seal went (cue oil patches on the drive!)

turns out the breather pipe was blocked and when the axle was getting warm the air had nowhere to go except through the seal..

cleaned out the breather pipe and replaced seal and all is jubbly now

maybe worth checking breather whilst fixing the seal as this may have caused the problem.

but incidentally that same seal went just before mot and it failed (the oil went on the disc and pad

cue new disc/pad/seal

and an emptier wallet for the trouble cos the garage did it before re-testing
