I noodled on the brake fluid loss as well, and looked around for
evidence. It looks like I've had a very slooooow leak at the back of
the MC for quite some time ... in fact, since I bought the car 2.5
years ago. Shame on me for not knowing to check and/or change the
fluid, given the hygroscopic nature of DOT3/4. I'm going to monitor
the MC level in the near term, and order a new MC once I've checked
elsewhere for fluid losses.

  Jay.. when a car sets.. all residual pressure is lost.. and seals can weep..


 If used regularly.. .they seal..


 Give the pedal the HARD  then HARDER test... if the pedal doesn't sink.. you are fine...
