Metal brake fluid reservoir for Td5

Baldgit · Dec 16, 2023

Hey all.

I’m doing some purely cosmetic mods under my bonnet and wondering if anyone know of a stainless/aluminium brake fluid reservoir that’ll fit a ‘01 TD5?

Many thanks!

is that the same as the 300tdi where the brake fluid reservoir is just a push fit into the master cylinder with some o-rings? If so I think you will struggle to find a replacement as it is specific to the master cylinder setup.

Yep, it is indeed and I have indeed. That’s why I’m asking here- I was hoping someone knows of an aftermarket one that is prettier.

Prettier .... why ? :vb-confused2:

Why would you want something you can’t see the fluid level in??

There are lids

Why pretty? I’ve been upgrading the second stage components and hoses, had a few things powder coated, and it just looks half finished. My ocd self doesn’t like that.

Hows the chassis ?
Any oil leaks anywhere ?

Chassis and bulkheads all solid and galvanised. Only a very very slight oil leak but that was fixed a couple weeks back.
