[QUOTE="Hilly_70, post: 571090, member: 4142"] I had the same problem a few years ago .. changed loads of stuff, cylinders, springs etc... Still did it .. What it turned out to be was the push rod into the master cylinder didn't have the required gap between the push rod and inner cylinder (think it should have a 2mm gap) What was happening was when it got warm, it wasn't returning the cylinder quite far back enough to allow the fluid to return and continuously building pressure .. for some reason it only affected the rears.. Slacked off push rod (30 second job!) and all was happy again .. Not saying its that .. just my experiences .. but worth a check :) Hilly [/QUOTE]
