Any advice and help appreciated.

The Tourer has been leaking clutch fluid for a while which I put down to the slave cylinder. However, the resevior was topped up again but I have found that it's leaking inside the car.

There's a hole on the rubber boot over the piston but it looks like it's ment to be there and the clutch fluid is coming out from that hole.

Is that piston easy to replace? Seals etc?

Help me please!!!

New master cylinder about Ã‚£25 from GSF/eurocarparts.
Easy enough to change,couple 10mm bolts and 17mm/13mm pinch bolt to the pedal.Undo pipe under the bonnet and pull the hose off the reservoir and itll slide out,refit is reversle of that then bleed

Not a bad idea to change the slave as well, while you're at it. They have a nasty habit of failing a fortnight later.

Is the slave a fairly easy job to do? It looks like it just unbolts from the bell housing area.

all in it will take about an hour to do them both and they are easy jobs to do.
