I have a 1984 300sl with a weird brake leak when you press the brake pedal it sprays fluid on the passanger side next to some kind of modual or unit I dont know what it is. Any idea what this might be?

I have attached a picture of where the leak is in red and the unit or modual is to the right of the red circle.

I think you'll find that is your ABS module, you probably have a leaking hose to it, or connector.

I thought the ABS modules were located behind the RHS headlight though??

I've not owned a w107 with ABS, so couldn't say for sure...

Hmmm, on second thoughts, I doubt it is an ABS module.

Can you get a closer pic?

It looks like the only brake component that goes near that part of the car (at least according to M-B) is the brake lines for the RHS front wheel.

Aren't the lines solid though? So I don't see why they would be leaking.
