3rd Gen Brake Master Seepage

Last weekend I noticed brake fluid covering the brake lines coming out of the master. I tightened the compression fittings and have been monitoring the leak. There was some residual fluid on the fittings and on the outside of the piston this morning.

I seem to remember a thread where a member had the same issue, but I couldn't find it. If anyone is under their hood this week, please take a look at your brake lines. Let me know if anyone else has this problem.

 

Where is the brake fluid?

 

Wiped it off

 

Then whyd you post a picture of normal brake lines?

 

For reference. Can you help?

 

Help with what? you posted a picture of normal brake lines. No one is going to be able to see the leak (if there actually is one) after you wiped them clean.

 

Take it to the dealer

 

There is nothing wrong with those lines. the dealer will just say no issues found.

 

Assuming it starts leaking within the next 24 to 36 hours, or at least by the time you get it to the dealer.... They should say something.

 

Thanks Smitty, I will if I can't seal the system. I want to know if I'm the only one with this issue.

 

A seep isn't the same as a leak and they will most likely do nothing unless it's dripping.

Lots of seals seep. I wouldn't worry about it unless it is dripping.

 

My 17 is not seeping at all. Has 5kmiles
