Car Forum / Ford / Ford Focus / January 2006Clutch hydraulic leak inside car
The seal on my 2004 Focus TDCI clutch master cylinder (i.e the one inside the car, above the pedal) leaks a little. The fluid runs down the pedal onto the drivers floor mat. Is this a common problem? Is it a Dealer job to fix, or withing the capabilities of any competent garage?

I work for as a field service technician for a large copier/computer firm and have a territory that includes Western Massachusetts and Upstate New York. I also inherited the family business (auto recycling - junk yard) but I'm there merely in name and watch the employees work from a distance. (they do a good job in my eyes). The Wife gets out to other business to do audits so she doesn't drive quite as far but she works in a 100 mile radius of her office. Happy modeming, Bill K. >>> Maybe its a high mileage car ?

Traffic volumes are so high here that average speeds are quite low. OT, I'm posting from the Royal County of Berkshire! Chris SignatureRemove prejudice to reply.

It's simply an honorary title given in 1958 because of all it's connections with the Monarchy.(Windsor Castle, Ascot etc). In fact, since 1998 it is no longer an administrative district. That role has actually been taken over by six unitary authorities. I only mentioned it because I was replying to "Berkshire Bill". Chris SignatureRemove prejudice to reply.
