Ok brake pedal, but its going to the floor
Heya Folks,
I notice a problem last night with my brake pedal, they have felt strange, but went for a cut, and discovered that with enough pressure I can make the pedal go to the floor, and it doesn't have to be hot to do this. I'm kinda thinking I may have a weak spot in the brake line somewhere, as I only changed and bled the fluid last week.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks

I found a split in my braided hose that caused the same sort of symptoms. My brake warning light did come on though.
My guess is there is loads of air trapped in the system or it's leaking from somewhere. Get someone to pump the pedal while it's up on jacks and look/listen for leaks (should be a hissing sound if you've burst a brake line)
