My brake pedal travels nearly to the floor before anything happens, and when it does, it's very weak. Naturally, this prompted me to search on the forum/consult my Haynes manual...

Upon closer inspection, the fluid in my brake master cylinder is below min, and when the brakes were pumped with fresh brake fluid added to the reservoir, it leaked out the back near the brake booster. In the research I've done, this seems to mean that I need an entirely new brake master cylinder, rather than a rebuild kit. Am I right in that assumption?

So where do I buy this PITA thing?

Thanks

 

Autozone or something similar probably carries them.

EDIT: Yup, they do

EDIT 2: Uh...this is for my car btw, you might need to change the year, i don't know if there's a big difference between the S4 and S5 brake systems.

 

www.nopi.com 59 bux for master AND slave clutch cylinders SHIPPED to my house.

 

Why would we want to send it to your house Mad?

actually 59 bucks for the entire getup is pretty pristine. You can't really go wrong with that.

I've got one I'll ship for $35. Its almost new. I pulled it from a TII I scrapped for parts because it had just been installed before it got sold.

 

ha...ha.........that's how much I paid for those pieces! but yeah TOKIKO(SP???) NEW parts!

 

O'rielys is cheaper than auto zone. promise.

 

PM sent, flamin-roids.

 

Rebuild kit...

 

I heard that a rebuild kit isn't usable in some situations. If you have experience with this, please tell me which cases are rebuildable!

Thanks

 

$17 (Slave) $29 (Master) from Nopi.com.

Oops. Way late!

 

I paid $70 with a $10 core, so $60. i didn't think that was bad.
