The thing I am wondering is that recently my car had the clutch release bearing go which is now a hydraulic system. As part of this I discovered that the gearbox had a couple of bearings going so I ended up having to recondition the gearbox, change the clutch, release bearing and flywheel. Very expensive repair bill. What I am wondering could a potentially leaking clutch master cylinder have caused the release bearing to fail?

Just interested before I go to Volvo to see if this could have caused my problems?

No not at all , the problem isn't leaking it is the plastic push rod can break under certain conditions , I haven't known any actually break yet .
( or leak ! )
