Hello everyone, recently inherited my dad's octavia after his death.  A 2012, Mark 2 I believe?

My dad had it 4 years and loved it, I seem to have had a few issues and look forward to advice.

On what?

Hi, i posted earlier on the mark 2 section.  Pedal stuck on floor and fluid leak, had the same two weeks ago and faulty master cylinder changed, went again today.  Awaiting mechanic on Tuesday.  I'm hoping it's something like a burst pipe or a simple fix.  I've only had the car a few months and spent enough on repairs

 

I replied on the other thread.

 

It could be a fluid leak, its difficult to refit the hydraulic pipe to the master cylinder and the seal has to be put on precisely, it can leak and be unseen.

 

To confirm or rule that out take the cap off the brake master cylinder reservoir and look at the level, if it is part way down and just beneath the take off point for the clutch cylinder then you have a leak somewhere in the clutch system, hopefully the master cylinder connection.

 

If you can see fluid leaking from the gearbox bellhousing it will be a leaking concentric slave cylinder although usually they take in air without leaking.
