Rear brake pedal/master cylinder is messed up. Apparently the pivot bolt is bad and bent the rode going into the master cylinder. I have to depress the pedal about 5+ inches to engage the rear brakes and the pedal is very sloppy (side to side).
Dealer is taking care of it under warranty, which is nice.... but pain in the A$$ (i might as well censor it myself)
What I could use your help is with a picture, or other knowledge of the pivot bolt and MS. Does it have a rubber bushing type thing? Does your pedal 'wiggle' side to side?
The brake fluid is very very dark - dealer said it only happens if it 'boils' well - it happened and not due to hard braking by me. They are replacing the seals and boot to the MS - so they would probably have to flush the brake fluid also (I would hope)
Just turned 500 miles on it today on the way to the dealership.
OH...... and I need a valve adjustment already - ticking away!
really? 500 miles? argh!
