Got the car back late last night so going to have a look tonight if possible to have a look. Hopefully nothing too bad. Hopefully not the main brake lines and just a flexi or a seal somewhere.

Standard master cylinder and no changes to the rest of the system so not sure why nothing but floor but there was a lot of fluid so I'm guessing I pushed it all out lol.

Fingers crossed for an easy fix to get it back on the road soon.

Well the problem was.........





Flexi rubbing on the driveshaft!

Seems that where it was when I put the suspension back on last isn't where it stayed and it moved its way through its retainer which isn't fixed to the pipe and gave it a enough slack to touch the driveshaft and then eventually rub through. Must have been that way a while :/

Glad to say it wasn't the calipers! And should be an easy sort out once I order the pipes again and this time I'll be putting a cable tie each side of the retaining thingy to stop it moving!

I'll order the ZS to Clio lines at the same time as it may as well happen soon and do a test fit of those tomorrow along with try and get the rear braided lines on too,.

Easier said than done with brake lines though.
