Does anyone have a pic of where the fluid comes out from the clutch weep?
Anyone else had the paint peel off the cover?
I did a search, but didn't find any?
(only have an iPhone)
do you need the rev B cover for the repair kit?

thanks!

There is a weep hole at the 6:00 position under the "puck".

You don't need the rev B for a fix. I still have my original rev A and mine's been fixed twice. (Hopefully this last time will be the fix).

Thanks, does it come out of the "puck" or the base of the cover?
Why the different "puck" on the 09? Is that the only difference between A&B?
Thank you very much!

It actually comes out of the cover. I don't know exactly why they changed the covers.

Good question....I've been wondering about this myself. Since there's a "weep hole", I guess that something like the bottom pic is to be expected...but drops on the ground are excessive?

that hole is for the air that needs to move as the diaphragm moves in and out.

That's the first explanation that I have seen for the reason for the hole. Thank you!

There is a kit for the Rev A covers (most 2008s) as well as the Rev B covers (all the rest.) Suggest that you keep the leak as clean as posssible so that the damage from the caustic brake fluid is kept to a minimum.}

It made me wonder for a long time, too. Then, one day I put my finger over the hole and had a buddy actuate the clutch lever.

Ah-ha, said I.

Is that salt all over your case?

What reason would the dealer have to replace rev A with rev B? Just the paint peeling off?
Why is rev B better?
Thanks!
