One of the struts that hold the hatch lid open has failed and begun leaking fluid. It happened yesterday when it was about 37-38 degrees outside (Melb). Gonna be replaced under warranty. Anyone had this problem yet?

Zero problems with my '03 LR that's now got 60k's on the clock. Mind you I only use it twice a day, if that.
