Greg29 Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 I have a 2009 Rockshox Revelation Air U-Turn that is leaking oil from the remote lockout connection. Anyone had this problem and know a 'quick fix'. Or is it a case of a full shock service??????
LOSMEICHERIE Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 i think it is a case of a full shock service , i think you need new seals.
Mike Bike Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 how badly is it leaking? mine seeps a little bit..
Greg29 Posted September 25, 2012 Author Posted September 25, 2012 how badly is it leaking? mine seeps a little bit.. Not too badly, it's just when the bike is on it's side or upside down.
Mike Bike Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Not too badly, it's just when the bike is on it's side or upside down.Ha ha then you should be fine...it shouldn't be in that position....
droo Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Ha ha then you should be fine...it shouldn't be in that position.... Rubber side down... OP - When last did you get the fork serviced? Most folk don't do this kind of maintenance nearly often enough...
Greg29 Posted September 26, 2012 Author Posted September 26, 2012 Rubber side down... OP - When last did you get the fork serviced? Most folk don't do this kind of maintenance nearly often enough... In January, so probably due another service?
mtbsmurf Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 How much should a shock service cost? Can it normally be done by your LBS or do they have to send it away. Need to get mine done and just tired of being ripped off.
David Marshall Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 Some shops service in house - others send to the agent. I guess an oil/seal replacement service will be around R600-700 for a Fox or Rock fork. Yours may be more depending on whether it is the seal or hose leaking. Give Yellowsaddle a call.

He worked on my Reba before and the fork is awesome! Edited September 27, 2012 by S.I.R Maxxis
