Hello all.
I've got a 2002 TD5 Disco 2 and the Mrs. took it out yesterday and said the steering was making a funny noise.
Started her up today (the disco) and the steering was heavy, clunky and noisy and I have a look underneath and there's a big collection of liquid on the steering rod underneath which was dripping into a little pool.
I came across this from reading a post:

Apparently there is another one called blue devil which works. Not sure if it's worth taking the risk on the above? One review said it can damage the reservoir
Does anyone have any experience of it?
I'm sure it's the power steering fluid. Checked the level and it is way down to the bottom. The seal in the first photo has a nut above it. Is it worth giving that a tighten? Do we think seals? Or anything more sinister?
.
Just wondering if it would be worth the risk to avoid taking it in to a mechanic.
Any insight most welcome!
Thanks
