yes i they aren't mounted correctly they will start to leak.i have to replace mine today also, cause i did not fill like mounting like i should have, after awhile the vibrations will cause the casing to crack.

The coil is filled will oil to act as an cooling agent and dampener for vibrations.

It's a sealed unit.... when it leaks, it's time to replace it. If it's good, you can even mount it upside down if you like, mines is mounted at 90degree angle.
