S60 Grease points??

So I noticed a couple small puddles starting to form under the ends of my S60. I've only had the thing little over a year and only driven it about 2500-3000miles. I pulled my tire and brake off to find that there is a grease point on the end of the axle tube. I had a local guy install this thing and he failed to mention this was there. Nothing in the Strange paperwork said anything about this either. Can I just put some grease in here and hope it fixes the leak or would it have nothing to do with the leak?

Don't know about the leak but I put a couple of pumps into mine every year but mine only gets a hundred or so miles a year a 1/4 mile at a time.

haha I forgot about my grease zerks too. YIKES! I should put a couple pumps in there this spring when I dig her out.

As far as the leak, that is a seal. Grease will not stop that. You will have to replace the seal if you want to dry up that leak. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news buddy.
