If there is fluid leaking in or on the wheels, your problem is most likely there at the leak. When the fluid fails to reach the wheels is when the master cylinder would be in question. Most often if you find and repair the leak, you have fixed the problem. After fixing the leak,make sure you fill your fluid to the full mark after you bleed the brakes to prevent any air from corrupting the system.
The fluid is leaking from the master cylinder and running back towad the pedal. Replace the master cylinderanswerchange master cylinder and slave properly then bleed the system properly.
Master cylinder is leaqking internally, what fluid is leaking and can I add fld. until it is repaired ?
The gasket to your clutch master cylinder is probably broken or cracked. or your master cylinder is bad.
Look for leaking fluid at the slave or master cylinder.
Master cylinder may be leaking, brake pedal may slowly fall to the floor when you are stopped with your foot on the brake.
2 reasons: 1. There is no fluid in your master cylinder due to a leaking master cylinder or slave cylinder or 2. You blew your clutch
Could be the master cylinder is bypassing.
That depends on where it's leaking out; if it's at the master cylinder, you have a bad master cylinder, if it's at the wheel cylinder you have a bad wheel cylinder if it's at a caliper... well, you get the idea. If you know how to repair a master cylinder, wheel cylinder or caliper, you can often get by with a little savings but it's usually best to just trot down to your local auto parts retailer and get a new or rebuilt one.
There is a smaller master cylinder next to the brake master cylinder. The clutch uses brake fluid also. If you mean where does it go if it is low, the slave cylinder on the transmission is probably leaking.
Is a bad thing and requires IMMEDIATE REPLACEMENT OR REBUILDING OF THE MASTER CYLINDER TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY AND OR DEATH
