its not your master cylinder. hydroboost runs off of the power steering fluid, correct. if its leaking it could be the hydroboost or just the plastic sealing o rings on the high pressure power steering lines to the hydro boost are blown out. i dont usually see hydro boost units go out. just the o rings that seal the lines into the hydro boost unit. have you had any work done to it where they had to remove the cab? if you have then the last guy probably didnt replace them. id still take it in and yes it is covered on warrenty. i just ran the part number on oasis. good luck! hope it gets fixerd soon. -6.0L tech

I have the oil leak problem. Been to the dealer 5 times, changed all seals, rear engine cap, and still have leak. Really beginning to hate my ford, though it looks good. Anyone replaced an engine due to continuous oil leak?

I have been to the dealer 6 times for my oil leak. One visit even found my differential leaking at only 25000 miles. Still have a hanging drip which doesn't fall. Will continue to take it in since I have warranty which covers it and even gives me a loaner car.Love the Ford Truck, but beginning to see that oil leaks will always be with me.

Well, my 6.0 is in at the Ford doctor. Bed Plate being replaced. Had the hanging on for dear life oil drip, but figured under warranty so why not. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but always wonder when the cab is taken off, etc. Took it in the other day to have dome dye put in the oil, the tech said that the dye doesn't really work..(i have my thoughts on that), said better to get under and take a look. CMP Sensor O-rings and CAC Tube clamps already replaced (used dye there). So will see how it turns out. Even gave me a rental car to use. Anything I should look for after I get it back besides dirty finger prints on the cab? 2007 F-250 C.C. Lariat 06 Engine, Cab date 6/06. Will post again if anything goes wrong.

My cab was also lifted (so they say), hardly notice anything different but the darn hanging oil drop. Been there done that five times already and will continue till the warranty runs out or find myself a lawyer to have them either replace the engine or buy the truck back. Love the truck but my driveway is looking pretty bad with spots.
