Hi Team,
i have an 06 V8 vantage and have found a brake fluid leak at the tip of the clutch bleed nipple. It does appear to be coming down the pipe itself. All connections are tight. When i take the pipe out of the rubber washer which holds it to the bracket, the pipe appears loose, would this be normal? Im not losing alot of fluid, its more of a slight drip.

Your advice, experience or fix is appreciated.

Cheers.

Sorry I can't help, but are you on Facebook? There's a group called 'Aston Martin DIY (All Models)' and there is a lot of knowledgable people in there, and a lot of good advice to specific questions so worth joining, there may be someone who can answer.

Try a new nipple - if that fails you will need to change the upstream part.
