Finally had the time to look at the slight leak I have had since buying my Grand.  Seems to be coming from the lower body of the pump.  I would guess the seal between the pump and the reservoir.

I found the number of the seal in the parts book but the manual says that the 2 clips holding the reservoir to the pump should be changed as well.  Anyone have a number for these as they are not shown in the book.

I will try to get to the stealers this week but do not hold out much hope.  German efficiency is certainly missing a few beats where my local Jeep 'dealers' are concerned.

Would have them shipped from the UK or USA but due to the volcanic panic, this does not seem to be an option.

Computer simulations are no substitute for real time monitoring!

don't worry about changing the clips, they're just a type of spring clip and last forever. ive used them over an over again.

Great - Thanks

Main dealer in Wiesbaden were very helpful - o-ring seal was in stock.

The seal looks very basic.  Because i only want to do this once, think I will wait a couple more days until I am back at work and find a similar size aircraft spec one.  These are rated to over 3000 psi with a large temperature range and are used with a hydraulic fluid called Skydrol which is one of the nastiest liquids on the planet.
