When my port Yamaha F150 is resting on the hydraulic trim rams, it gradually creeps downward until it is fully trimmed downward. I notice this in the driveway, but not when out fishing, etc. There are no hydraulic leaks anywhere that I can see and the fluid level in the reservoir never changes. Is this normal? Should I be concerned? The starboard engine always stays in position. Thanks!

Low hydraulic fluid or bad seal.

Not normal.
You have an internal leaking seal.
You won't lose any fluid as it stays in the system but it leaks from one side to the other.
