Brake fluid? (if P38) Any leak from brake master runs down and off the chassis/wheel arch plastic and drips from between wheel and drivers door.

Is there a way to work out if the engine has been changed from the engine code? Does the code translate into a build year etc? Could it be an engine swap from a car? Number on mine is 38558440 and just below this is 25 6T M Found out what the 256T means but what does the 'M' stand for?

Hi. Do you have a trading address for him? I used to live on Anglesey and I still go back every couple of months to see my little daughter so I could have a look. The island is only about 30 miles across so I should be able to find someone who knows of him.

This clutch is fed from a separated section of the brake master too, plenty of fluid for the accumulator but before I vented the cap the vacuum created by the accumulator filling would suck from the pipe feeding the clutch master too. So far, not had any problems since venting the cap :)...

Ours has done just over 195,000 so far!

When the clutch pedal goes and stays on floor with no resistance I can not select any gears, clutch arm on slave doesn't move at all due to the apparent lack of fluid. Usually the clutch pedal won't return on its own but once bled the pedal works again and disengages the clutch. Since...

Thanks for that. I was thinking the same too. From searching on net I'm now 90% sure that the brake master cylinder cap should be vented, this one wasn't. Hoping that the pin hole I made in the cap has fixed my problem but time will tell. Doesn't explain why though that the clutch worked fine...

I know from searching that the usual thing to be told whenever anyone mentions a p38 clutch is that the rolls pins will have snapped and gearbox needs to come out etc. If the roll pins break does this just allow the forks to rotate on the shaft? Why if I bleed the system does my clutch work...

Hello, new user to site and first post is a problem unfortunately. We bought a P38 last month and all seemed fine until clutch pedal went to floor. Could bleed it and then would work fine until vehicle is parked overnight and then problem came back. Have fitted new clutch master and slave...
