[Deleted member 20482]

when i was changing my front bumper to a face lift cupra bumper i noticed that this was leaking some sort of oil stuff..
got no idea what it is..NUMBER 1 any help would be good..
OR COULD IT BE LEAKING FROM NUMBER 2
i know leaks are not a good thing but is it something that is dangerous?

Im not sure, but think its got something to do with the air con.
1. is i think were it stores thae gas.
2. aint got a clue about this one

guess it a new part then..or do you think its just a seal...?
got me stumped..not dripping or anything just slowly leaking..prob those dam speed humps or the giant pot holes shaking it loose.

Hi just to let you know it is definatly a drier/ filter for the air con, when i brought my leon the air con wouldnt get cool at all had it re gassed but to no effect, chap then sugested this part and picked me one up for £45 pricey for a metal filter but worth it to get the air con working again. if i remember rightly there is a bolted hose to the top and bottom ends with little o rings on. if you do change this dont re use the o rings as they have a tendancy to leak. hope this is helpfull to everyone/anyone

it looks like its leaking from the bottom hose so i guess its just a seal then..reciever looks ok..
wasn't sure if its a seal or the hose where it is crimmped.
can i change the seal myself or will it need to be done by the stealers.
or any air con person..
