    Hi there,
    My golf seems to have a very gradual brake fluid leak. Can't see any obvious leaks, but the level keeps dropping below the min mark and its very gradual - should I bleed the system or could it be another problem? Also, what brake fluid should I use?
    Any help /advice appreciated!
