My 2012 3038e appears to have a solid flat disk as the outermost seal on the rear axle. It has loosened and seems to expose an inner seal. There is no leaking of hydraulic fluid or anything. The part appears to be a single flat washer-like piece with no threads anywhere and, I guess, should snap fit into the axle housing. I can find no parts diagram that shows this part exactly - but the diagrams are unclear. I believe it might be part number LVU19404. It's position around the axle close to the flange that holds the wheel makes it difficult to push back. Has anyone had this happen? Is it a serious matter requiring immediate repair? How do you reseat the part? Is it something a medium skilled owner can do? I'd appreciate any advice.
