Master cylinders are 'cheap' relatively speaking - any thoughts on replacing the MC or anything else to look at before jumping into it - or simply having it done???

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My brake pedal has always been soft, but brakes work even though pedal travel seems to go forever and it never really is firm at all. Also when releasing the pedal from a stop the rear brakes groan as if they are slow to release. I have bled the brakes twice with 22 psi pressure bleeder and the first time all 4 rear bleed taps spewed big bubbles, but no bubbles anywhere now. My 'guess' is that the master cylinder is at fault. Master cylinders are 'cheap' relatively speaking - any thoughts on replacing the MC or anything else to look at before jumping into it - or simply having it done??? No codes nor CELS - although occassionally I bairly catch a 'brake fluid' light even though the brake reservoir is very full.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
