RE: Brake fluid reservoir leaks



Hi Stephen!  BTDT. The brake fluid reservoir just pops off the master
cylinder.  The two rubber grommets are available (by special order) from
Audi/VW dealers at $20 Can. each!  I noticed when first messing around
with it that I pulled it off, cleaned and inspected the grommets
(determined they were in rough shape) then reinstalled with the old
grommets, this stopped the leaking for a while - a month or two. HTH
