After a couploe of rides I blew the seals od my fork: RS Pilot XC, so now I am vey careful and am trying to look after it besy I can. I wanted tooil oil it but my friend told me that it does not need oil as it has inside and every time the fork compresses it gets oiled??

As far as I know my fork has air, not oil. If I should oil it what oil should I use not to damage the seal?

Sometimes it makes a squeaking noise, any ideas what this might be??

Thanx
