Leaking NLG Damper

Post by hkavasch »

Hi,

have a leaking NLG Damper on our DA42. Damper is only 3 years old... Does anyone have experience how to fix the damper quickly and in a cost efficient way (three years back it was quite costly..)

Any ideas why a relatively new Damper starts to leak? Dirt? hard landing? or just bad luck?

thx

Hans
