Anyone? I've seen similar things with a 900 clutch - fine when car is standing, but when you drive, the master starts to let go. Heat. 10-20C can make a difference when the seal is marginal. Unless you're loosing fluid, it's the master, no doubt about it. Where did you get your seal kit from? Are you sure it was the right one, not one where the seals were 'about the right size'? Are you sure you put all the seals and washers in the right order? -- Grunff
