Been noticing a small bit of oil on the drive over the last few months but have nerver really seen where it came from.
Done a few spirited miles over the last few days and have developed a knocking front left corner....same corner as oil patch.
Took wheel off today and the damper is wet through, dripping off the drop link! So I guess I have found my noise, obviously a wheel bouncing up and down due to no damping I guess.
Just thought I would share, maybe will help someone out in future!
And this is not a car that is never looked at underneath, I'm often poking about under there. It crept up pretty quick!
