Yeah, if you check the tranny forum... you'll know my clutch is gone too. The night before, I was stopping for a deer when my brake pedal went to the floor. Lucky me.
Master and slave cylinders are both full. I still have some stopping power if I push the pedal all the way down. I haven't had any symptoms of failing brakes, they've been fine for awhile now. Just all of a sudden they're gone. Shoes replaced around 8 mos. ago, and front pads are still in great condition. Edit: Sorry for the noobish question, but brake assemblies aren't my strong point

your master cyclinder is the culprit.
look at where the master cyclinder connects to the brake booster. see if there is any leaks or rust there?... If there is any leaks there then there is a sign of a master cyclinder leak. you should get that fix asap. ( master cyclinder: that metal thing with the hoses and reservor is connected to) ( brake booster: this is that big black thing that is attacked to the firewall) |
