I'm afraid I don't have a TSB# for the brake fluid reservoir, but you can still take it to the dealer and have them fix it. They know about the problem; at least, my dealer did. I could've sworn that I got the TSB from these forums. I could be mistaken. At any rate, everybody can take it to the dealer and explain the situation. I thought it was just greasy grime from them detailing the engine bay when I bought it, but it came right back a few days later after I wiped it off. I got it replaced at the same time I had my gas tank replaced and Xenons installed.

swieduwi, you need to have yours replaced, too.

torch red, I like the Xenons. And, yes, they're expensive. I got mine on the "blackmarket," though, for $600. They're $1100 if you get them straight from Saleen.

Received my intake cover and installed it in just a few minutes. Absolutely looks like it came from the factory. Ford should have included this piece or at least made it an option

torch red, when you get yours, be sure to post up some pictures. I'm considering removing my spoiler for a more sleek look. Problem is, from certain angles, the car looks like it's missing something without the spoiler. I'm going to be getting my mirrors and calipers professionally color matched shortly. I'm going for a more classy, sporty look rather than the usual rough and rumble look that most Stangers like. Porsche is my inspiration, oddly enough. I'm not even a Porsche fan, but they are sleek looking cars.

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I also have that brake-fluid leak.

I'm thinking I'm just going to get it fixed when I take it in for its first oil change (which should be ~ 1 month), or should I get it done sooner?

FYI for you people who don't know where it is.

Well, anytime you're leaking brake fluid is bad, but I don't think your brakes will be failing anytime soon. If you check your fluid, you will find that it is still full (amazing, ain't it). Somehow the fluid just oozes out, sort of like osmosis. Problem is, if brake fluid is getting out, then moisture is probably getting in.
