What are the Most Common Master Cylinder Problems?
There aren’t very many master cylinder problems. in fact, the majority of the time, the problem is due to leaking and/or worn piston seals. Worn seals are something to be expected because they are being used each time you apply the brakes. However, leaking seals are typically caused by dirty or contaminated brake fluid. Bake fluid is subjected to extreme heat and pressure, and over time, degrades. If it is not changed, and brakes are not bled on a regular basis, contaminants in the fluid will tear at the seals and cause them to leak.
