Citroen C5 Strut Seal Suppliers?

[Robbocop33]

Past mot today,woohoo but noticed one of the rear struts is seeping slightly(suspension works perfectly).Noticed in Haynes they can easily be rebuilt with new seals,are these a dealer only part?,never seen any on Ebay etc.

Slight leaks on the rear struts seem to pass the MOT, I had one pass and so has aspire_helen. have a read of this topic http://www.citroen-owners-club.co.uk/citroen/topic/24268-c5-22hdi-2001-rear-suspension-cylinder-leak/

If you want to try replacing the piston seals they would be a dealer part but some dealers do sell through ebay such as Rigbys of Chorley, however, the postage may be more than the discount on offer.

Thanks.Its just yesterday yet again i was trying to get the parking sensors working and noticed the drip.

Gaiter itself seems to play quite an important part as far as i read regarding holding fluid,maybe just needs the gaiter but i'd be as well replacing the seals while i'm in there,treat her after sailing through the mot! ;-)

Just to be clear, before I submitted my car for MOT I removed all signs of a leak.  A volatile solvent (eg carb cleaner) removes all traces of oil stains very nicely. I would also add there was no drips, just staining.

I gave mine a quick wipe and expected it to fail but no, it passed but failed on a front one.
