PINPOINT TEST A: Damper Fluid Leak Diagnosis

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Jaguar XE and 2017 Jaguar XE. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. A1: ASSESS LEAK 
    • Residual oil left over from the damper assembly process may create oil staining on the damper tube. This will not affect the function of the damper.
    • Slight seepage is considered normal.
    1. Assess the extent of the oil leakage

    Is the leakage serious enough to indicate that the damper seal has failed?

    • Yes  : GO to Pinpoint Test B .
    • No  : Shock absorber not faulty, do not renew.
