SankysVR6 1 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Sound like the master cylinder, have you done a brake fluid change recently or something. Link to post Share on other sites
Phat VR6 3 Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 lol Well ive changed everythink.. All the calipers and most of the brake lines but the master cylinder was perfix before.. It hasn't gone vague. Just doesn't work full stop, as in full brake aplyed and you can still spin the wheel by hand.Can master cylinders go like this?

UnitedMotorsport 55 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 Did you bleed the ABS unit as well as the calipers? Link to post Share on other sites
kadvr6 0 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 if you cant get it fixed?? the whynot servive station can do a pucker job of bleeding the system, they did mine when i fitted the brembo's. it turned out that i could not get enough pressure into the system to bleed the master cylinder properly. i was also using a gunson eazibleed kit.

Devildub_06 0 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 Bleed ABS unit as per C2's suggestion. What I suggest you try then is some flexible brake line clamps on 3 of the 4 calipers, push the pedal and record any movement (a mate comes in real handy about this time!!). Rotate this clamping procedure to each wheel and record any movement in the unclamped brake line.I should think C2 is right though, ABS units are an air trap. Link to post Share on other sites
