Hello all! Hope you kind people can help me.
I've recently bought a 2014 MK7 GTI manual with performance pack.
Sometimes when driving slowly such as parking, the brake pedals bites lower down than normal. When I pump the brakes the bite returns back to the top. Yesterday I had my mechanic look over the car and he couldnt see anything wrong. I've had him do a brake fluid flush (activating abs). When I drove home the brake pedal sink was still there! I then looked behind the brake pedal to see the rubber boot slightly moist. Do I have a faulty brake master cylinder?
Receipts from the previous owner shows brake master cylinder, clutch cylinder, brake fluid was changed last year....
Except the brake master cylinder, what else could be causing the brake pedal to sink to the bottom?? Anyone has similar experience?
Does anyone know where I can find the correct part number for the brake master cylinder, online shows 2 options 25.4mm and 23.8mm? Which one is correct for my car with performance pack?
Picture of said car (I'm based in Hong Kong). I've had MK5/MK6 GTIs/MK5 R32 in the past and haven't come across a low brake pedal before.
