So I recently started having my brake fluid leak into my car via the clutch pedal area. The reservoir has dropped alot of fluid. No visible sign of fluid in the engine bay area. I have a spec 2+ clutch with the upgraded wilwood cmc. While driving today my knock control and fuel trims went crazy. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

I don’t think that’s related, but that concerns me as i have the same setup as you. Granted my si isn’t my daily, but i have put about 5,000 miles on this setup and a few drag race days with no leaks

edit: mine has fluid below the clutch pedal as well

Went to hook my computer up and drive it to the shop. Car wont start and is completely dead now. Starting to think having a 4 minute walk to work is now a good thing.

I just looked under my clutch pedal and carpet was dry. I ran my finger on the bottom side of the pedal and there was fluid! This is crazy. Anyone with the wilwood cmc should check!
Have you figured a solution for this yet ?

I did replace the battery. My battery box had fluid in the bottom of it. My car started right up, and everything seemed normal outside of the clutch issue which is still an issue, but after uploading my tune and driving conservatively I gave it about an 80 percent pull in 3rd, car shuttered, knock count again went to around 89 (not as high as before) and I shut it down. It's now 66 or so but seems to be staying there. I data logged only after the initial battery replacement and it seemed ok but I should have kept logging.
