Brake fluid...

[AaronGS]

Following servicing I was advised my brake fluid had '5% contamination' and should be changed. I did however have it replaced in February.
It seems very quick to me to have got so dirty already.
Any thoughts on this and what the problem could be?

I am getting no braking problems but the clutch is occassionally sticking.

Cheers guys

brake fluid is hydroscopic so absorbs moisture is the cap sealing o.k.?
have seen before fron flexi's collapsing inside and causing this

Either that or when they replaced it last time they didnt fully flush the whole system and only sucked it out of the bottle and a quick bleed on each pipe, seen it before at work.

Cheers.

Goble i am not very technical: how can i check if the cap is sealing properly.

So should I just bite the bullit and get it changed again then?
And is it worth getting braided stainless hoses whilst I'm at it?

Thanks guys
