Diagnosed a master chamber leak. Wondering a ballpark sort or if anyone has had the aforementioned difficulty in their car.

Question #3:

What can I do to resolve my brake problem in my 01 Dodge Ram?

I've replaced the face calipers, rotors, and shoes. Have bled the brake right using the older fashion method, somberness bled, and modify bought a assistance pump,and no signs of expose in the system. Now after intellection the officer cylinder was bad, I am on my ordinal newborn one, intellection I had defective ones previously. Bench bled them as substantially before installing. Brakes module begin to viscus up, the tone then drops to the story as if I haven't bled them or like air still in the system. I've absent through 15 bottles of brake changeful and can't figure discover what is going wrong. Lost and need support bad. Possibly a bad ABS component? Am I missing/overlooked something? No leaks perceived anywhere.

Question #4:

2001 ford focus SE (auto) brake problems, help needed.?

so the brake had prefabricated the customary scrape sound, screaming they needed to be replace and my wife failed to do so. now once she presses the brushwood it goes all the way to the floor and it takes a patch to andante down and the bowing is no individual head. she said she did research and "found" it could be the officer cylinder. does this sound right, and does anyone know where an available 'how to' guide is online? thanks for feedback.
Added brake fluid, worked for 5 minutes. then reverted back to pedal to the floor.
asking this question because i want to fix it, i dont hit 600 to modify at a mechanic.
thanks chief.

Question #5:

My brake pedal goes to the floor after i just had both of my rear pads, shoes and wheel cylinders replaced?

I have a 2001 author Focus ZX3... the journeyman at that class claims he checked everything he possibly could, so right there I knew an idiot just worked on my car. I asked him if it could have been the Master Cyclinder or the Booster. He had no idea... Any info would be much appreciated :

Question #6:

What is causing my brake failure in my car?

Front disc, back drums Buick Le Sabre Car

This problem has been going on for a while. I first had a rank failure feat downhill. They replaced the officer cylinder. This didn't cipher the problem. I went to a second journeyman and he replaced the passenger front lateral rotate arbor device, told me the discs were burnt also from a "sticking calliper mark which had no oil on it". So he place in new rotors and greased the caliper pin. This seemed to solve the journeyman side of the problem. Before I would get a ceramic identify see and the brake would fail patch the car was working hornlike with downward momentum. The brakes would fail with the tone 75% of the artefact downbound and then just be like metal on metal or ceramic. BTW Anyways, he did name that there was a brushwood pad with a fissure fissure in it - the pads are brand new crowning of the line. But the now the brakes seemed to impact fine and feel perfect.

However, erst again most a month later. I had a rank failure. This time it was different. The brushwood pedal froze up solidified nearby the modify of reaching to a stop. It was frozen in the up position. I pumped it to no avail. Using the parking brake, which worked at most 25% I was healthy to get the car near stopped. Just before doing so I noted that the engine appeared to have absent dead. The brake tone was frozen solid in the up position.

Just as it was creeping along, I started the vehicle again and instantly the brake tone came backwards into play like nothing was wrong and seems to work dustlike again. Any ideas? My machine seems to drive my engine to expire most once a month. The another journeyman said it was something to do with EGR and O2 stuff but not to worry. However, I also had this happen on a rotation rode and the power control locked. Once again I put it in viewless and started it and the control came back into play.

Any ideas?

I'm guess maybe vacuum leaks or a computer problem. The back drum brake hit not been serviced in 80K miles either.

Question #7:

if had antifreeze added to the fluids in clutch and brake system..how long it would take to damage parts?

have heard that it module corrode the parts in the officer and enslaved cylinders and also the calipers..is this true?

how it would do this and after how long?

if hit already driven it with the humectant exclusive the system..is it too New and all parts are needing replaced? or how most harmful the seals?

WHY HEAR THAT IT WONT..AND ALSO HEAR THAT IT WILL? WHICH IS TRUE AND AGAIN, AFTER HOW LONG?

Question #8:

is it possible to replace fluids in a clutch & brake line by siphoning resevoirs & refilling them continuously?

if dont have someone to help dowse the lines..and meet poverty to place firm changeful in..can meet ingest digit of those siphons and draw out 90 proportionality of fluid in master chamber resevoir..and put fresh fluid inside it..and then pump the tone or intend it for a week ..and then move again maybe do it 3 times? will this pretty much decent the older changeful discover ?

also, which percent of fluid is even in the actualised lines? and which percentage is in the master chamber resevoir?
How will study in thoroughness this method vs having a class "flush the line"? Is this meet more time consuming..but if are feat to be dynamical it and meet do it 3-4 times each week over 1 month..will intend pretty such same results? or how compared?

Question #9:

Replacing brake fluid (ABS)?

Toyota Matrix 2009 humble model with ABS
1.8 L, DOT 3, 2ZR-FE

I have a MityVac Vacuum Pump

1 Remove most of the older brushwood fluid, but not all, from the master chamber reservoir.
2 Top off the MC reservoir with newborn brake fluid.
3 Put the motion on the bleeder regulator then confiscate the MityVac.
4 Pump the MityVac a couple times then crack unstoppered the bleeder valve then near after a few seconds.
5 Repeat #4 until decent fluid flows with no expose bubbles.
6 Repeat #4 & #5 for the another bleeder valves.

Are my steps correct?

The automobile drill didn't say anything most the visit I should bleed the valves but I did find for '03 - '08 models: RR, LR, RF, LF. Though the MityVac drill says to start with the valve closest to the MC to the farthest one. Which sequence should I use, unless their's a universal injury sequence?

A pair websites say to be cautious with vehicles with ABS, and that I need a construe tool and/or to set the ABS BEFORE I spread the valves. Do I really need a scan agency and how do I depressurize the ABS?

Is there anything added that I'm absent or need to do?

Question #10:

Do Dealerships service mechanics often have "service advisers" that act like sales people?

i had someone rain a bit of humectant into my master cylinder resevoirs for both my clutch grouping and my brushwood system...and had been having pain getting the clutch tone to become up properly..so was thinking had an air buble in the line. or had problems with the new enslaved chamber i had place in in April.. As i just had replaced whole clutch, master cylinder and slave cylinder.. for maintenance purposes i replaced the enslaved and master..since they were replacing the clutch

He told me that there was a chromatic changeful in the master cylinder resevoirs for my clutch and my brakes..and that HE intellection that there was a 50.50 chance that i would need to replaced the enslaved and master cylinders because the foam seals were dilapidated belike by the coolant? BUT HOW? AND DOESNT THE COOLING SYSTEM HAVE RUBBER INSIDE IT? WHY IT DOESNT DAMAGE THE RUBBER THERE?

I titled added Toyot "Service Adviser" at added one..and he acted same it was a BIG DEAL..and that he would also replaced the brake distinction and whole system?
I GUESS BIG QUESTION IS ..DO THEY LIE? OR DO THEY KNOW THEY ARE LYING OR NOT TELLING THE COMPLETE TRUTH? OR WHAT YOU WOULD CALL IT AND HOW THEY FIND THIS ETHICAL? HOW COMMON FOR OTHER SITUATIONS?
AFTER I MADE IT CLEAR THAT I DIDNT PUT THE GREENISH FLUID IN THE SYSTEM TO THE SERVICE MECHANIC..AND TOLD HIM..HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU DIDNT PUT IT IN THERE ACCIDENTLY 9 MONTHS AGO? HE ACTED ANGRY AT THAT ACCUSATION..BUT I THINK HE WAS PUTTING ON A BLUFF ACT..AND TOLD ME THAT HE WOULD FLUSH IT ONE TIME...AND SEE FROM THERE....BUT I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE CLUTCH PEDAL COMING BACK UP PROPERLY....MAYBE HE DIDNT FLUSH IT PROPERLY?
