My car brakes fine and all. But at the stop light, the pedal will go down slowly until it pretty much touch the floor. If I brake hard one time, it'll stop but will come back later. I bleeded the line and everything. Is it the MC or the booster?

This has been happening to me. Does it happen all the time or only sometimes? When it sinks to the ground and you get off the brake does your idle go up? If so then I think its the brake booster, which is expensive as hell. For my 94 si it was close to 400 bucks at hondaautomotiveparts.com. Try looking at car-part.com, they may be able to hook you up. Hope this helps.

 

It only happens some time. I've never notice the idle. I'll watch for it. Thanks

 

Ok, nothing changes at idle. So I'm guessing the MC. Anyone?

 

id say time for a brake up grade or at least a mc

ps sounds like the mc is not holding preasure

pss u could also have an air bubble in your brake lines try bleeding them again but thouroghly

Well, I would like to know where the problem is before I can upgrade. I think I'll do the 91 civic MC like Tom said. $60 ain't that bad. Thanks

 

It's most likely the MC like stated a few posts up. I had the exact same problem until the brakes went out completely.

 

sounds like the master cylinder just like dwnthehatch said. check your master cylinder if its leaking break oil..and if it is, then you have to install a new one. not too hard.

 

im not really familiar with brakes...but have you tried rebleeding and in the correct order??i already noticed you said you bled it but isnt there a certain order you have to do it in?
