I have just ordered a new seal for my OEM clutch slave cylinder for my 98 M600.
When rebuilding do I use some brembo grease on the seal.
Are there any pitfalls to be aware of during rebuild

thanks

Brembo grease can't hurt. I just lube the seal with brake fluid to install.

You'll need to hone the bore of the cylinder to break the glaze. Every time I've done mine there has been a bunch of mung and corrosion on the rod side of the seal. Clean that out before you hone.
