I've searched but nothing... Today was really hot here in pa, and I was running around in my car when my brakes started feeling a lil weird. When I initially push on my brakes their ok, but if I keep pressing my pedal goes lower and lower. Is my fluid boiling? I know for a FACT that I have to leaks ---> new calipers, new rear brake cylinders, and no leaks around the master cyclinder. So what could it be??? Also, could it be the booster? and what exactly does that do? Thanks a head of time!!!

 

replace brake master cylinder thereis an internal leak thus cannot hold pressure do it asap before you get in an accident

 

Are you sure? This was the very first time that it happened???

 

replace the massa cylinder, i had to do mine, its pretty common in cars with high mileage

 

same shyt happened to me...first started on a really hot day(up in the 80s) people told me to change my master cylinder also, but i was hoping it wudnt have to come to that...i bled my brakes and after that it felt really firm, which was great..but after a day the pedal pressure went soft again...so i dunno, i still dunt think its master cylinder(or maybe im just hoping it isnt and im in denial)...and how many miles does the master cylinder usually last? my car is only nearing 93K so i doubt it needs to be changed

 

WELL MY CAR IS NEARING 250k and it still runs sooooo good, i'll pick one up tomorrow and throw it in. Does anybody know the easiest way to bleed my lines when replacing the master cylinder???

 

make sure to bench bleed the master cylinder before you install it , leav cylinder full of fluid just put the caps that came with cylinder and a little trick before connecting lines to cylinder remove caps and let some fluid come out, hook up lines and you dont have to do anymore bleeding trust me it works like a charm

 

So a pretty easy install when it comes to bleeding the lines then ey? This is good news to my ears

 

any suggestions on brake fluid for the accord? I know a lot of people are saying motul...sp??? I also think I have some air in the lines so I'll do a flush also...

 

My 94 LX with ABS does the same thing...also have a sticking caliper that has worn my new ceramic pads down within 3 weeks.I take it that CD5's have poor brakes from the factory.Oh and dont let your pads get down to the rotors...they're a pita to remove!
