Default Brakes keep going out???

I'm working on a 96 dx coupe automatic and I notice that the brake fluid doesn't last more than 2 months. We changed the master cylinder and it was good than got the car back and noticed it lost alot of fluid but they're is no leak. Anybody have any ideas what to look for? Brakelines possibly?

You should try pulling the drums off and checking if brake fluid is leaking from in one of them...If you have rear drum brakes that is.Also check your calipers,maybe its leaking from the piston seal.

Check all lines, proportioning valve, calipers and wheel cylinders (assuming you have rear drum). Gotta be going somewhere.
