jeep grand cherokee
i was wondering if any body can tell what this is? I have a 2003 grand cherokee and up in the left rear quarter panel behind the rear tire there is something that looks like some kind of pump and it is leaking oil that smells like rear end grease, can any one help me?

Can you post a pic of it? It might be equipped with rear heat and air. Antifreeze maybe? Are you sure a vent line from the rear differential is not leaking?

the part he is referring too is the LDP (Leak Detection Pump) which is run by vacuum off the engine to check for fuel leaks and blockage. there is also a charcoal canister down there too. if anyone else sends me a reply ill send it on too you

The item you see is the evap canister and a solenoid for the purging system. The tank vapor lines are fed to it, and a stainless line runs along the unitbody frame rail and into the driver's side of the engine compartment.
