Master cylinder replacement

You might find that the reservoir is split causing the leak. (Don't touch the brake pedal if you are just changing the seals or you will draw air into the system)

The master cylinder just unbolts and pulls off the servo housing, (nothing to mess with inside the servo) but obviously you have to remove all the pipes and then bleed the whole system- don't forget the bleed screw on the compensator, which connects to the front brakes.

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

Brilliant, thanks.
I’m gonna have at removing the reservoir today then. I have a second hand spare so I will have a look at the state of them and go from there.
Thanks!
