Brake works in odd way.

Oct 03, 2007 3 Replies

Hi.



If I brake hard my car glides little before it brakes but if I brake soft/gently it brakes normal. I have bleeded the system few time and checked for fluid leaks but there is non.



Changed the pad and the rota but still it glides little bit of distances.



Would it be something wrong with the master cylinder..or is it something else?



What do you mean that it Glides? It doesn't feel like it is stopping as fast as it should?

It may help a bit if we knew some details about the car, like year, make, model, transmission type, mileage, etc.

Yes. It does not stop as fast as it should, don't even feel ABS working. But If I brake slowly, I mean push the brake paddle gradually I can feel it is gribs and I can even feel the ABS working towards the end of stop.
