Took my SLX brake off today and I dunno, circled in green is some moisture which has beaded up the way I imagine it’d do on an oily surface and circled in red is some mud which hadn’t dried out like the rest, possibly due to sitting in an oily surface? Or maybe in reading too much into things?
If we say that they are signs of a leak then the joint between the calliper halves looks like the culprit, I’ve not heard of this as a common issue, anyone else?
Edit: helps if I attach the photo!
