Hi all again,
have you ever experienced moisture on the brake reservoir pipings? I am pretty sure the piping have been replaced by the previous owner but I am not sure about their quality...
I am experienceing a sort of mixture of small water drops but at touch seem a little oily too.
Maybe a cause for my previous rear caliper rebuild adventure? Who knows..
The car is kept in the garage under the house, there is a little humudity there but all the other piping in the brake circuit don't exhibit this phenomena.
Thanks for your comments.

P.S.
I'll try to post a small picture nextly,

Is it not just a very slight leak on one of the joints, the brake fluid would spread along the pipe given time.
Give it all a wipe dry then keep dabbing the pipes/joints with a tissue.
I had 'wet' hoses on the reservoir as they had split where they connected but the splits were under the hose clips and couldn't be seen.

Hi there,
thanks for reply,
I'll have abetter look for cuts on the pipes, btw, I always clean them but every 2-3 days the moisture is there.
I'll manage to take a picture of this.
Thanks,
Valter
