Bled the brakes last Sat., no leaks, getting prepped for our first camp this coming weekend, drove it to dinner last night - it's leaking again! My husband checked all the checkable things - which looked fine. Anyone else had similar fun? We're thinking the next stop is slave/clutch-related. Debbie Fleming Alexandria, VA Hi'yer, Debbie, Same problem here, same symptoms, and yes, it turned out to be the slave cylinder. I took it to BA Wackerli's ( local VW Dealer, great guy there named Klaus ), and voila, no problem. Hasn't leaked since. Here's what they charged me: Repair Replace Slave Cylinder - 52.00 Slave Cyl - 79.95 Brake Fl. - 6.55 Misc Shop Mat'ls - 2.60 Total - 145.43 Yar, it costs a bit, but the ToochMobile hasn't leaked a drop since! Best o' luck to ya. -=Chris=-
