Another one concerning Tamara the 2.5PI.

I've given her all sorts of presents, like new brakes, a new tyre and loads
of attention. My reward? The @<:>?@$* clutch hydraulics let go today.

Wating at a junction, Tamara turned into an auto and set off of her own
accord, with the clutch pedal all the way down.
The system's still full of fluid so I expect the pressure's coming back past
the seal, just as happened on the brake master. The clue is that the
reservoir is pushing fluid past the cap.

The question? Well, is this a Triumph thing or just bad luck? I've only ever
had one other master do this, on a Mini. All the others have wept fluid from
the open end.

Anyone else had the same problems, clutch or brake?

Thanks,

Dave Hill.
