Hi All,

While frantically trying to get my cam belt changed i noticed (but did not have time to fully inspect) a slight brake fluid leak, which appears to come from my ABS pump.

Unfortunately, i have not been able to move the header (water) tank and get my head in their to have a good butchers, but the wet pipes and surfaces below do seem to point at the pump being the culprit.

I have found these on ebay for around a ton, but do not really want to go through the hassel of buying/waiting for ont to arrive to be no better off and out of pocket.

Q, Is this a fault anyone has seen before, it seems that 'common' faults involve other issues other than leaks..?

Your throughts would be much appreaciated.

Regards

Tom

UPDATE:

I gather this is uncommon, as i have had no replies, so i called Andy at Arnie Levics, who said he had never seen a leaky unit before; can anyone pass comment on this?

I'm going to basically wrap the unit in bog roll to see if i can identify the leak.

Help still needed as i am back in the 1.5 NA diesel paxo until i fix it! :(

Regards

Tom
