Does anyone have links to a how-to on a rebuild of a Float RL or R shock?

Blew an o-ring at the top end of my 2011 RL shock today on the local 4X track messing about, oil everywhere! Looks like it's coming from under the lockout/rebound lever. Not lost any air, just has very squelchy damping.

I've found plenty of guides to air can service - easy enough, but can't find any for stripping the top end down to replace the o-rings. If anyone has a link to the process it would be greatly appreciated. I'm happy with a high level technical challenge (did my TALAS forks earlier this year, but would like to know what I'm getting in to first!

Cheers

Mojo say it's non user serviceable as it's pressurised with nitrogen to stop oil cavitation
Loco off here is the man to ask, do a google for Loco tuning.
Edit, a 2011 one should be a warranty job anyhoo.

Unfortunately it was bought secondhand with a frame, so warranty is probably not a goer. I just don't like not being able to do something on my bike!

Looked up Loco before, on holiday from next week unfortunately.
