Hi all, I drive a Rover Mini 1999 1.3 MPI. I have recently notice that the braking has gone soft, I bled the brakes last weekend which fixed it for a day or two, bled them again and it did not fix them at all, the fluid is on the max in the reservoir.
The brake pedal will bypass the front brakes and hit the floor and engage the rear brakes, after pumping the brakes a couple of times the front braking will return or the pedal will drop quite low and the engage the front brakes with very little stopping power.
I have taken it into a mini specialist garage, they have not seen anything like it before, they've check the brakes over but cannot see anything obvious, they have suggested replacing the brake limiter and give that a try and then if that does not work then replacing the master cylinder, I will be going ahead with this, just wanted to find out whether anyone has any ideas or have experienced this before?
Thanks.
