[6pack] Bad brake master cylinders

[im sloane]

My experience with brake components is that Moss will sell OEM TRW (they bought Gerling) items and also offer a cheaper aftermarket (GOLD) item. The Roadster Factory will only sell TRW (Gerling) items. I wouldn't buy anything from J.C. VictoriaBrit Whitney, especially not brake related.

Sorry, no experience with the symptoms you described.

Hello,
   A couple of you (who's names I can't remember, sorry) wrote about receiving defective brake master cylinders from Moss. I'm in the same boat. There's a chance that I got BOTH of these MCs from VickyBrit but I doubt it. Anyway...
   The first MC worked fine on the front brake circuit but the rear circuit was sealed! No fluid movement at all. The second MC must be leaking internally. It will not build pressure front OR rear, but fluid does flow.
   After multiple bleeding, the pedal will build up a little resistance then goes to the floor. Let set for 2-3 minutes and the pedal goes to the floor with no resistance at all.
