W22 chassis with the wet hubs. Drove down to Charleston yesterday and noticed the passenger side front tire had fluid leaking. Some spun around the tire, drooling from the nut covers. Even when sitting still, there seems to be a slow drool down the tire. Take hub cap off and there was fluid pooled up. Just a little bit, but some.
Hub fluid level looks fine, tho.
Question: Is there any chance this could be something more serious than hub gasket? Could brakes leak out on the tire like that?
I'm heading back to Florida next week. Sure would be simpler to deal with it back home.
