Just getting car out of hibernation, moved it the other day and checking again noticed a pool of clear grease in rear pasenger rim. Would I be right in thinking that the bearing seal has failed??. The bearing is fairly new only done a few tho miles ago, only thing I can think is abit of rust has formed and caused damage when I moved it.

As bearing is new can you just buy replacement seals, were from??

Never seen clear bearing grease and wouldn't be fluid enough to run out.

It's the only stuff in that area that is clear to my knowledge. Bearing grease far too thick to form a pool
