I've got a TD5 90 and sometimes, once or twice a month I get clutch/brake fluid dripping from my clutch pedal.

Both the reservoirs don't seem to be going down.

What could be the problem?

Master cylinder seals failing, either reseal or replace the whole master.

Replace the clutch master or brake master?

Get a torch and look up above the pedals, should be obvious which one is damp. Probably the clutch if that's the one dripping but confirm with a look first. The clutch slave can follow suit awhile later so consider replacing that at the same time.

I think the slave cylinder has recently been changed so I guess that means it could be the clutch master. As well as the back of the clutch pedal and top of the clutch pedal arm looks wet.

Had same thing. Clutch master. Pretty simple to do. There's a good buster photo guide
