Anyone run into this problem before? I drive my 93 RX-7 (About 120K miles) about once every couple of weeks. I have noticed brake fluid on the garage floor. The leak seems to be on the passenger side ride behind the front right wheel. Possibly the brake main seal? Something else? Anyone had this problem before? Costly to repair? Thoughts?

take off the wheel and see where it is coming from. prob the hose or the caliper

Check your ABS pump. That is the most likely spot if your leaking on the passenger side (at least it was in my case). https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/dry.png

the abs pump is the likely leaker. doesnt hurt to pull the wheel and look at everything else though

Yea, sounds like an ABS problem to me

how far behind the wheel is the leak? 1-2 inches?...12 inches? It's either the caliper leaking or the ABS pump.





I have an extra ABS pump for sale if it turns out to be an internal leak on the pump.
