Soft brake pedal |
Subject: Soft brake pedal by djxib on 2020/6/16 12:44:23 1996 CE 6MT. Went on a long drive in yesterday afternoon's heat and after a particularly hard stop the brake pedal went real soft, and then after a few minutes cruising it went back to normal, and then after a few minutes soft again. "Brake Pressure" light came on. Can still stop the car "normally" but extra effort needed and pedal was almost to the floor. ASR lights have been on since I got the car, so I don't think they are related, but could be a contributor. Brake fluid reservoir is full but looks black and I think it's 10+ years old. Possible I boiled the fluid off.. plan to completely flush it and do the ABS flush (I have access to a scan tool to cycle it). Any other suggestions/theories? |
