If the cause is the spec of the seals, that's harder to understand since brake seals tech is old school.

Either way this is going to run for a while. I wonder if the same m/cyl is used on the Super 3?


Value engineering at its best?
Master cylinders are not exactly Modern technology and failure t 2 to 3 years is simply unacceptable.
Whoever signed off the supplier should be let go.

It will be interesting to see who the supplier of these parts is...(was?)
It smells to me of buying the cheapest master cylinder available.
A quick web search suggests that replacement master cylinders from Brembo are less than £150.00... "no name" are as little as £40.00!


At least the CX master cylinder is accessible, unlike the Aero chassis cars.
