Hi all, I have a Vauxhall astra reg SD58 KZF (VIN ) I am looking for the rocker cover gasket and seal on eBay, however I have not been able to find the correct part on eBay. All suppliers just tell me their part won't fit. Could someone help? Attached is the picture of what it looks like - when...

No actually I repaired it quick after the last message at the time, not sure how long a Ford repair would have taken after they would have replaced the master, slave cylinder and then eventually clutch, before maybe getting to this part …

I changed one part which cost me around £7, been driving it for a few months now since last posts on here and haven’t had the problem, managed to fix it. I’m glad I didn’t go to Ford and pay £700+ for their suggested presumptive repairs! Hopefully this post can help someone else with same...

No, maybe didn’t explain properly

They showed the footwell, I’ve driven the car since and put paper in the footwell completely dry, they don’t know what they’re doing

Ford advised me to change the master slave and clutch. When I asked them where the leak was they basically said they didn’t know

Never mind, it’s all leaking from the joint of the pipe and master cylinder I figured, need to either replace the top of the pipe or maybe the whole master cylinder.. to be continued

Update: so I took the pipe that was suspected to be leaking. I thought maybe the seal wasn’t put it but the seal was there and while handling it I lost it. Put the pipe back in, loosened the bleed nipple and started pumping the clutch. The pipe from the master cylinder was obviously leaking...

Yeah so brakes haven’t been affected I just get notified to at brake fluid level is low. I think the pipe going from master cylinder to salve cylinder is leaking as per pictures. When I get it I will check it and see if the seal is on etc. I feel that is the issue. To be continued..

I ended up taking the car to ford for diagnostics. They told me there was a leak, I asked to show a picture. Over the phone the manager said it was at the front. They’ve now said this and are closed for Xmas. But this looks dry to me? Any thoughts? Am I right in thinking there is no evidence of...

The slave cylinder leaking would be leaking into the footwell? What I will do for cost efficiency is 1/ Change the pipe If no joy 2/ Change the master cylinder If no joy 3/ Change slave and clutch Thing is, I could feel the leak with my finger from the pipe at connection with master...

If it is causing a leak in the footwell, does the slave cylinder and clutch need to be changed?

What’s the name of that hose?

Makes sense because I have been having an issue with the clutch/gear as well..
