Hi i was sorting out my washer fluid pump for the mot and then come across all this oil.. I think that its most likely the gator because the metal ring is not holding it on anymore. But im not really sure, So i wondered if anyone knew where the oil or grease if its the gator is coming from ? Sorry about the bad pictures, its dark outside so i could see myself ! =p . if you need more i can take some tommorow. Thanks, Guy

CV grease !!
Needs CV grease putting into the gator, and then a new clip fitting to the gator as it looks to have come off in the pictures.
Shouldn't cost too much ££££ - could do it yourself, CV grease is nasty stuff so try not to get any on yourself. Worth cleaning it off the inside of your arch and wheel to monitor if it's still leaking out.
Try and get some grease in there asap to save the CV joint - it could be too late but looks like not much has come out tbh.
Some where like gsf/eurocarparts should be able to help, might end up buying a CV boot kit, and just not using the boot
