FN2 Grease/oil from drivers side shock absorber

Messages

Hi all hoping you can help,

Noticed the other day that there was some staining under the car by the offside front wheel.
At first thought it may have been my leaky screen wash bottle which I've got to replace the pump from.
However it wasn't. I've taken the front wheel off and that's exposed the soaking of all the components on the lower part of the suspension. The lower part of the Spring is wet and all components below, covered in oil.
Before I call Honda tomorrow for a potential replacement, can anyone suggest what the problem could be? Shock absorber gone? The rubber driveshaft boot is in tact and perfectly OK as thought it could have been that. Also potential cost too?

I'll try and attach some pictures shortly....

Both sides therefore replaced or can you just replace one side? Got an idea of all in cost at a main dealer?

Also, does anyone know of any reputable Honda specialist in or around the Kent area only I'm aware the labour charges at a main dealer will be high...?
