100 series AHC

[Robert Matthews]

On my 100 series i have a had a massive ahc oil leak from the rear near side which has resulted in the suspension going to low and off light flashing. Area around the globe etc is ok , my manual i use does not have AHC so i don't really know what i am looking for other side of the chassis from the globe, any one out there with diagramatics , manual or any description of how to go about repairing

Could be hydraulic pipe pin holed or rusted out or rear shock seals shot or shock rusted out if you can put up some pictures if you find the leak that would help also check the AHC fluid res other members might be able to offer more help and info

That rather sounds like the pipe feeding the rear shock, it has a hard pipe which crimps onto a hydraulic hose and I bet it'll be that join that has rusted out. You'll need to drop the fuel tank to get proper access to the area.

Unfortunately this can't be repaired in situ, I have a 100 on the ramp with this exact problem at the moment.
