Yeah it's definitely leaking. It won't necessarily blow up, but will lose its ability to dampen. I would see if you can get it rebuilt by Tein. If not then you will have to buy some new suspension.

Probably better off getting a new set all together. The rest may be on the way out as well.

Leaking coilovers are a definite sign

Does the manufacturer have some kind of warranty? You could send it to them for a rebuild . Depending on what company
