jimny - ns diff oil leak

This sounds completely wrong, I would change your garage!

If its leaking down the wheel then its not the Differential. The diff is in the middle of the axle and it its leaking will drip down onto the road, not your wheel. You would certainly not have to "remove the suspension" for anything other than a broken spring or shock absorber.

You do not say if it is the front wheel or rear wheel?

If its the rear wheel then I bet it looks like this....



In this case it will be the rear wheel bearing (available in the SHOP - CLICK HERE )

You woulnd need to find someone who can cut the old bearing off and press a new one on for you (a guide to this is HERE )

If it is a front wheel that leaking like this then it will be a Kingpin Bearing or Front wheel bearing

In that case my money would be on a collapsed lower kingpin bearing (you would have to get both changed - upper and lower) or a front wheel bearing (less likely)

A Suzuki dealer will, in general, charge the earth although a dealer local to me ran a very good offer recently - see www.suzuki4u.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7619

I would seek out a local mechanic and see what they say. I am a home DIY'er, not a mechanic and I can change Kingpin bearings easily in an evening outside on the drive.
