Couple hours later he says the techs have determined the grease is from a bad front hub and that is also what is causing the clunk. Apparently, they missed the fact that you can physically see grease coming out of the "breather" on the bottom-side of the DSSV and the breather missing on the RF side.

I had checked the hub prior to this and saw no play or abnormal noises nor have I ever seen a bad hub make the clunking sound shown above in the video. I'm almost tempted to let them give me a new hub for free, but I don't want the hassle.
That's when I would have gotten back in my car and left. You must have wanted to laugh and shake your head at the same time when he said that. It's really sad there is so much incompetence and lack of product knowledge within dealerships today. Good luck with your issue.
