Since taking the front off to lower the car it's started leaking from that horrible seal on the top of the master cylinder again....must have nudged it or something.
Took the seal out completely to reseat it in the MC and when it's in place before putting the line from the reservoir in it feels a bit wiggly. Is this normal or should it be a pretty snug fit? Or maybe just try another one just in case?
I think the one that's in there now is only about 6 months old, but i guess you can get a duff one...

they do tend to wobble a bit make sure you push it right in then pull out a little to allow the hose to sit away from the bottom of the inlet port
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

Thanks for that...

Reseated it again...seems ok for the last hour or 2. Will recheck it tomorrow to be safe.

Don't trust those things at all!
