VPI Scout damping fluid

I have had a Scout for about 2 Yrs. now with no issues until now. The arm used to drop slowly and now it drops fast. Does this mean I need to add fluid somewhere? I bought it from a dealer already assembled. Am I better off without fluid? Does this happen to everyone or do I have a leak? I don't see any fluid on me cabinet top.

I got in touch with VPI today and when they receive their next batch, of the lever assembly in, they will send one to me. Very nice to deal with.
Thanks for your help

Does anyone know what fluid is used in this device? I want to try a DIY before I fork over the $40 that VPI quoted me to replace the lifter (plus I have to ship this one back!!!!)

Thanks and sorry for the new thread requesting same information. This shouldn't be rocket science.
