my fork is leaking from the compression adjuster and the answer I've been given from marz UK is "buy a new cartridge, they cost £120".

I can't resist a simple fix when there's nothing to lose but everything to gain so I started to strip down the cartridge today. Removal from the stanchion was easy enough but getting inside the cart has brought me to a stop. The clips from the damper rod and the comp needle are off but nothing wants to come apart like I imagined it would!

Where do I go from here?
