The RS is the car that keeps on giving……. ☹️

[GM]

Got one job done today and another headache added ?

Always give it a good look over before a service, having a look and found a small leak from the cylinder thingy….! ?☹️?

14k in total 1100 miles in last year

Just a heads up for others to check, possibly flexing under hard braking? did read / see somewhere braces were available?

[71-bda]

whereabouts is all that then Gareth ? I don’t think I’ve seen that in the engine bay !

No nothing.

No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

No tackiness.

Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

Innit?

@ 71-bda Its the master cylinder, like a drip / run from the back

@gm

I’ll check my Master Cylinder when I get home in a fortnight!! Cheers for the heads-up!! ?.

Your Spark Plugs look a bit black at the tips mate!! Probably just running a bit rich on the Dreamscience map!!

You’ll need to drive the RS hard to get any benefit from the One-Step-Colder Plugs or they’ll tend to foul up mate. I fitted the Denso ITV22’s last year and no issues. ?. Keep the right foot planted pal… ??.

Cheers, Marc.
