I'm having an issue where the brake fluid container goes down ever few month to the point where the dash light comes on. I filled it up again but recently the brake petal goes almost to the end before activating brakes.

If I pump it once then hit it again the second time the ped will activate the breaks where it used to. If I wait more than few seconds it will activate when the pedals fulling down again.

I'm thinking there a hole somewhere cause I'm not seeing any fluid leaks.

Any ideas or thoughts appreciated.

Oh ya. Anybody know the number for PFS near Washington?

check your clutch line. That is known to leak and be a site for your symptoms. There are ss replacement clutch lines.

Also, obviously, check your brake pads and brake lines.

There's a leak somewhere - you just haven't found it.

Is yours a std shift? Does the clutch appear to work OK? If it does, the problem is in the brake system. I would suspect a caliper problem since a leak there would be harder to detect than in other locations. Also, a bad caliper can suck in air when you let off the brakes and result in a low pedal as you are seeing.

A leaky master cylinder can also suck in air, and leak beneath the carpets where you wouldn't see it.
