So I've had most of the leaks minimized until now. All of a sudden the temperatures are starting to drop and I'm finding that things that were not leaking before (transmission, ball joints, etc.) are now dripping. Ugh.

Is this the case with anyone else?

You may have found where your missing brake fluid has gone.

From the picture, it looks like the usual weep of Ep90 from the swivel housing. Brake fluid leaks will see oil/fluid coming out the bottom of the brake backing plate. Unless its excessive, and you have to top up the ep90 frequently, I would leave it.

Just my opinion:thumb-up:

What if the rubber brake line above the swivel housing is broke/cracked? Could be brake fluid then, say?

Lots of "what if's" could , in theory, cause such a leak. I just gave an opinion on what is most commonly seen on 99.9%:thumb-up:
