Been so long since I have attended, PC10 shorty loosing pressure. Hopefully Aberdeen up and running at some point this year.
Should I try to change seals?
Anyone who can advise or know where in this area an overall can be done?

Even if we weren’t in these COVID-19 restricted times I wouldn’t know who to suggest locally. Maybe try the importers?

you don't need ballons on barrels to figure out where the leak is coming from.soapy bubbles do the same thing only quicker

99 times out of 100 the seals will be the culprit or foreign matter at the fill port.Over time the seals will dry and crack and it is advisable to replace every one at the same time.I was handed an S200 that was leaking badly and on inspection the seals were so old that they crumbled as they were being removed.seal kits are available for most PCPs.It is important that you do not use mineral oil or grease to lube the seals as this will degrade the seals in a very short time.A light smear of silicone based lubricant will have them slip in to place and keep them supple for longer.
Hope this helps.
