  • fluid loss

    No not water for a change!, I am loosing a small ammount of brake fluid and no I am not ignoring it, however with all the knowledge on here I am hoping you guys and galls can give me the benifit of your experiance in locating the most likely place to look, the front calipers and flexies have been changed.

    How do you know you're losing it, has the level in the reservoir dropped significantly? Does the brake pedal feel 'spongey'? Any puddles left under the truck when parked up?

      yes dropped max to min in 3 days
      no, still firm but I am reacting to the warning light
      no puddles
      what I was hoping for vince was some feedback on which componants have failed on other trucks so that I could work on probabillity to reduce time out in the white stuff!

        most likely to be a rear wheel cylinder. But also check you footwell under the carpet in case the master cylinder is leaking past the push rod, and also the pipes along side the fuel tank, this can get stuffed with mud and the pipes corrode, but to honest your truck is to new for this, unless its been dunked in the sea all its life.
