Ok, for the last month or so I have noticed my brakes becoming a little softer. No biggie, just every now and then I would give it a pump. Figured the master cylinder was going out, but it seemed to still be pretty good.
Well, tonight driving to get some new kicks I had to slam on the brakes. And I mean slam!!!
The pedal was to the floor and when I tried to push it in again it gave almost 0 resistance.
So I get back in the car to drive it around in the empty lot to test my brakes. Thinking by now that the car would be normal. Nope, no resistance until the end when the brake kicks in. This sucked, I had to push to the floor still. And when I push it in you hear an air sound, like a pump.
If this does not sound like master cylinder I am just screwed.
And on the same note, anyone done the 750iL MC upgrade? 25mm bore. I have heard it is a little overkill, but then again my car is! :roll:
