In recent days my D8 has developed a leak too!

I think it's number 9, and looks a right pig to change :cry:

getting the pipes off is normaly easy,
putting them back on is normaly the hardest bit,

is it the metal part of the pipe thats leaking ?

The pipe was somehow cut....

I found access was greatly improved when the foglight (or cover in my case) was removed
