A few weeks ago, i noticed that my Q is dripping a tiny little bit of PS fluid... Its not coming from the rack as the boots are newish and look really clean..... my car was on the rack the other day to get a sway bar thing fixed, and it looks like its coming from the HICAS solenoid, that is right under the brake MC.....

It looks like its dripping right down the frame and right onto the sway bar bracket right there......

Anyone have any experience with this?? Since its such a small leak, would stop leak help it...?

I bet if you take it off -you'll find the o-ring is squished and junk. Don't use neoprene!
