Lift carpet under pedals, check for fluid there....
If so, rekit M/C or replace with a new one.

hi guys, on my way home I lost my bracke pressure. I havejust got new lines fitted yesterday, new rear pads, all was working great till my trip home, I felt a strange feeling through the brake peddle then no pressure ( Ie all the way to the floor with very little effect) any ideas< I have checked no brake fluid under the car, still has some in the can, ( about the same as my clutch) thanks Brett |

Maybe the pin has come out that connects the pedal to the plunger? |

That's my current problem/symptoms - need a new master cylinder (and consarnit no-one is ever open when I have time to go there!). There's no really obvious leak, but it's always damp around it, and I came to that conclusion after fixing everything else. |
