be interesting to see if that fixes it, other thing you could do is insulate the clutch reservoir itself.

keep reading though

Hmmmm, well folks, it doesn't seem to completely have resolved the issue.
There is no water leaking from the top any more but something tells me that it is leaking from the strut itself. There seems to be a rubber washer or seal within the strut and I can only imagine that water is getting in there. Does anybody know how easy it is to gain access to this? Its just under the metal work but methinks its going to be a real pain in the a***



So not actually a necessity

Yeah I did see that part. If you read on further it does say at the end he found out the water drainage holes that let the water out of the doors were blocked so maybe that was the cause of the problem as this also happens on my mates car lol

ah fair enough! Either way it's pretty cool you can remove the manifold without taking the engine out- even if you do have to replace the seal its still easier than the alternative

Yeah definitely! If it doesn't appear to be that hard to do then I think I'll be having a crack at this myself I mean what's the worst that could happen?
