Miatadude Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I am pretty sure my master cylinder needs to be replaced. I adjusted the rear drums, but the pedal needs to be pumped 2-3 times to get decent pressure. Is a remanufactured ok? Would Advance Auto or Autozone be a good source? I did search, but did not find an answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durania Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I have one on my 95 Outback. You probably cant even get one from the dealer. You gotta do what you need to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykeys Toy Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I am going to assume this lack of pressure is recent. And that you have bleed the brakes all the way around to make sure. So I got a new master at teh autoparts store for $50 no core and once it was bench bleed ( I waited over a year to do it ) The brakes were awesome. Almost as good as my hatch with rear discs... Touchy but fun on anything that isn't pavement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miatadude Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 Thank guys. I have had the Brat since last December, and got it on the road in January. I did bleed the entire system 3 times. It has never had a firm pedal since I have owned it. Will pick up a reman unit and go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
