Alright ladies and gents, it seems as though some people are starting to leak again after their initial repair. Let's see if we can get some numbers to support whether people are getting multiple duds or if there is another issue(ie the housing).

Good question. I'm no mechanic but maybe 1000 miles and I can see if I can allow vote changes?

Edit: changes are already allowed so if anyone does begin to leak they can update their vote.

It may be useful to track how folks have done with replacing the entire rear housing assembly as well.

I left that option out because there's a huge thread of us unlucky individuals already. At the time of posting this, the sole goal was to gather evidence of whether the repair was effective or not.
