Not working at all or just not working very well?
Have you checked the obvious things like pads for wear or glazing? Could also check the disc and check the hose isn't buldging anywhere when the pedal is pushed. Check the seal on the master cylinder aswell, the system needs to be airtight. If all these are ok it would probably be worth bleeding the system incase there's air in there. |
