are there any chips on the fork piston (the really shiny part)? feel for them. it doesn't take much to cut the seals.

just replace the seal (or do both while your at it) call your local shop or look in your manual for help on how much fork oil to put back in..it took me about 40 minutes to do both of them...and skill level is like a 1 or 2 tops, tutorials on how to do it, just google it.

If he "Just replaces the seal" and there's a nick in the forks, it going to leak again, count on it.
