Clutch master cylinder replacement

Hi all,

After fixing the sticking brake, I'm going to try next to fix the leaking clutch master cylinder. My car is on ~95k miles and it is leaking quite a bit which sent me on a wild goose chase as I thought my brake pipes had gone. I have seen some second hand ones on eBay off cars that have done a similar mileage but am worried that they may be in the same (leaking) condition that mine is in (even though the sellers says they are in working order). 

I wanted to ask How many of the members have had to replace this part on their car and at what mileage?

Should I try to fix the seals (leaks) or buy used off eBay or new??  What has been your experience???

Do you have any tips to do the job??

Thanks

Another leak from master brake cylinder / clutch / brake pedal ?????

Anyone elses Auris with similar leaks, it's done less than 100k miles so thought it'd be better than this.

I'd see if there is some rebuild kit, to replace the seals only, which is probably what's wrong with it.

Maybe check with parts king if they sell something like that.

If not, then maybe try to send to a specialist to refurbish it. 

I would not go with a second hand part there.

As for the mileage, i don't know how long you had the car, but maybe someone topped it off with wrong oil, and it slowly ate away the rubber, or it was used a lot in city traffic.
