I have a problem and I didn't know if you guys could give me an advise.

On the back driver side wheel there is brake fluid leaking from where the axel enters that little dohicky.

I am going to bring it to the dealer tomorrow but do you know if it is going to expensive?

I wouldn't think it'd be much more than 100 bucks depending on their "diagnosis". Hopefully you have a trustworthy dealer. Even better would be if it was covered by your warranty. :D

What year is this. I believe I can make 2004 out from you sig. If it is an 04, then you have disc brakes and really the only thing it could be is the caliper, or a bad hose. I would check it out myself before I took it to the dealer, thats me though. Id say they would charge alot for a brake job.

Yeah it should be covered under my warranty but I am just worried that the lift for some reason will void it out. But I don't think that it should void anything other then the suspension.

Thanks for the advise.

Oh yeah it is an 04.

Well I got it looked at today, when I went through the mud a couple of weeks ago and I blow a axel seal. I guess the muddy sandy water got up there and ate at the seal until it started to leak. So needless to say we will be tearing apart the rear and changing both seals.

Thanks for all the advise.

Is warrenty covering it? Never heard of that? Maybe it was just a bad seal. I go through mud all the time and my seals are fine.
