Needs some Info - Click HERE for Original Thread

hey guys. I just finished (so i thought) my 5 lug swap on my EG. now after finishing up and bleeding the brakes, i took it on a test drive and everything was fine, vehicle stopped on a dime and the pedal felt awesome. so i park it for about 10mins, then go to drive off and the brake pedal hits the floor. the vehicle still stopped but took about 3m to stop from 20km/h. whats going on? do i need to use a ITR master cylinder and brake boost? or just a prop valve? or somehere along the line my master cylinder crapped out??? any info would be great. thanks

Did you tighten all of you bleeder valves :rolleyes:

Easiest thing would be to look where you have lost fluid. Is there break fluid on your driveway?

*Edit* just saw that breaks still kind of work... its probably an air bubble, bleed again.

CangDai
ya, no leaks. bleed 2 more times after. what i didnt do tho, is remove the booster to see if the master leaked any into it.

you know i had the same problem, when i bleed my brakes.
after i replaced the pads and seated them properly, they were so touchy, i mean i could lock the wheels at 60k/h with hardly pushing hard on the pedal.
then same thing, 20 min after it parked the car, they brakes were so soft.

i ended up bleeding again, and found no air bubbles in the whole system. i even took it to nissan and told them to bleed the whole abs system, didnt make a difference.

eventually the strength came back, but it still is never as strong as it was originally. i have no idea what happened with both of us.

we didnt do anything wrong....

CangDai
ya man, its so frustrating.
