Cheapest/Best place to buy brake master cylinder?
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 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.

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

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
Thanks
