I have two problems
1. Brake Fluid is leaking from Reservoir looks like because I can't find any where else leaking. Also press on brakes won't stop quick at all.
2. Hearing noise from the front end, like tapping, to me looks like sway bar links. If I put few people it quits down, struts changed at 90k. Please advise.

1. Do you physically see that the M/C is leaking fluid? How much fluid have you added? Do you have to keep adding fluid? You may have to bleed the entire system to get the brake feel again. Raise the vehicle, and remove all wheels. Physically inspect all calipers and wheel cylinders (if applicable) and your ABS module (if applicable) for signs of leaks.

2. It is quite possible that the sway bar links are faulty. While you are under the vehicle bleeding the brake system, take a few minutes to check the links.
