What does it mean when I push the brake pedal, the car stops, but the pedal does not go back to its original up position, and I have to kinda bring it back up with my foot. If I do not do anything the pedal goes back up very very slowly.
Opinions anyone? Thanks. |

What Eric did not mention is that he can also supply beautifully refinished pedal assemblies. There are a few others that can rebuild them also.
There was a good deal on master cylinders on eBay recently. Chinese made I believe, but might be good value. Generally, you need to replace the MC, the rubber lines, and rebuild the pedal assembly about once every 10 to 12 years. That is also pretty true for caliper rebuilds also. Not too bad if you maintain them on a regular basis. |
