My 1985 4-door Range Rover Classic has had the right hand (driver's side) front hub seals replaced four times over the last 19 years, due to leaks. In desperation it's now been filled with grease. I have always suspected that the problem has been due to a build-up of pressure within.
After a recent period of running, I removed the oil level plug and was greeted by a hiss of escaping air, like pulling the plug out of an airbed - sounded like several litres escaping!
Yes, the front axle breather is clear. No, it doesn't leak anywhere else (at least not from the front axle etc!)
Anyone else had this before? Anyone know what's going on?
