alright this is for a accord but i figure you guys would know

my friend says that he presses down on the brake and then it just sinks down towards the floor , you know what i mean .

its liek he brakes , and while braking it just sinks down slowly till it hits the floor .

he also if you want you can stop it all the way down to the floor if you wanted to .

this is for a automatic accord

thank in advance guys :thumbup:

 

so...do the breaks still work? is it stopping?

 

He needs to bleed his brakes thoroughly

 

yeah thats what it is

 

yea he is

 

so basically bleed all the brakes and then add more brake fluid in the master cylinder right ?

 

he needs to keep the master cylender filled to the optimum level the whole time he is bleeding, don't let it drop too much, or you will get air in the lines again, if you have it overfilled when your finished, again, non optimum braking.

he can either pay to have it done, or you can help him do it. Should take about 20-30 minutes per wheel... or per side. Its been a while, i can't remember

 

sometimes my accord 93 wagon brake pedal sinks towards the floor and most of the time it does not.

had brakes checked and nothing wrong found... yesterday had brakes bled and new high grade fluid installed... but today the bugger is still doing it, after about 20 minutes driving.

Saw a post saying the problem went away after vigorous cranking of hand brake... something about settling the rear linings...

Saw posts saying check the master cylinder... But my garage is pretty damn good and would not have missed something like that....

Any other ideas ?

 

this is back from the dead

 

HOw the hell do you read through 5 months of posts? You must be bored as hell!
