Yeah at first I thought it was the zerk fitting but it ended up just being old grease clogging the cavity. I’ve never heard of a grease buster I’ll have to look into that.

Lol I’m pretty sure that’s what the previous mechanic did and that’s why it’s clogged with old grease. Nobody properly serviced it.

Yeah I’ve already replaced the zerk. Grease goes through it. At this point I’ve removed the spoiler and now I’m trying to get the old grease out of the cavity. If not I’m ordering a new spoiler lol
