B4 Rear brake
« on: June 16, 2005, 06:33:04 AM »
Hi, my B4 Rear brake has become very unreactive and there is a lot of travel in the lever before anything happens. The pads are not too work and the fluid levels are fine. Has any body got any ideas on what the problem is, if any.
Thank guys. Dave :thanks:
If at first it don't fit .......... Smack it with a hammer(might be the reason my B4 is nackered)

Sounds like you might have air bubbles in your brake line. Try bleeding your brakes.

How hard is that?  I'm not thrilled with the feel of my front or rear brakes.
