Where can you find more details about your AMG master craftsman?
mine is Matthias Lutz and am curious now haha
Rumour has it that engines built by guiseppe are very strong?
Greetings,
Lately, my brake pedals been sporadically disappearing into the floor panel after a recent copper hose + fluid change.
I thought about changing my master cylinder and called MB UK to order a replacement only to learn that they only stock ATE and no Bendix. I'm not sure what my...
Had a bit of a moment this week in the Viano, no brakes or very little.
It started with a strange dry sound and a fart like noise inside, it was like that a week then one day from parked, foot on the brake and into drive and it was off!
Pedal would pump up ok but went down very low.
Today had...
My w123 has a Bendix master cylinder with no apparent bleed nipple. I bled all the calipers twice but it is still soft so next step is the master cylinder check.
How do you bleed the master cylinder without removing it from the car?
Failing all else, is it possible to bleed the calipers a few...
As per the title, mine has failed. No resistance and pedal to its lowest point but brakes still working.
With this in mind:
1. Is cyclinder failure the only thing that could cause this? This symptom came on over a few days and now even pumping the brakes fails to get the resistance back...
So, while needing to remove the master cylinder to refurb it I took the opportunity to strip the entire side of the chassis in the engine bay down, refurb, treat some rust underneath the ABS pump and generally clean it up.
so, all going smoothly, rust treated, new drain hole created in the...
Hi
I replaced my daughters brake master cylinder on her Kia Picanto about 3 months ago to cure a brake binding problem (common fault it seems). All was fine until 2 weeks ago when she suffered brake failure (pedal travel to the floor) once.
I checked system for leaks ( no loss of fluid)...
Are there many different sizes of W124 clutch masters? I know that the older Mercs eg. W114, has a 19,05mm caliber cylinder. And I am of the understanding that the size is the same in W124.
The problem is that I'm having difficulties in getting the clutch work properly in my W114/M104 swap...
I need help, I am now on my 3rd clutch master cylinder in the last 18 months, the piston rod keeps breaking, when the first one went the garage replaced it with one from euro car parts and 6 months later it went, this time we blamed the crap that euro car parts produce and put a genuine merceds...
Hi folks,
Striped out the various trim and wipers to look at replacing the heater control valve - I can see it, but it looks like to get adequate access, the master cylinder needs to come out.
So, is removing the master cylinder a viable task at home or is specialist kit required to deal with...
Hi,
I'm still really enjoying my 500 SEL. I've done 30,000 miles since I bought it in 2010 and it is going well.
However, I'm getting slight brake drag now, and the front brakes are slow to release sometimes, despite the car having new flexy pipes, callipers and pads (which move freely).
I...
Hi Guys,
Im retrofitting C63 Brakes onto my C350cdi and I've been trying to find info on the master cylinders.
Ive seen 3 conversions done and working perfectly without any master cylinder changes.
Any thoughts?
Hi there,
I have a w203 c180k 2004 and need a master cylinder. I can't find any on the net and Mercedes are 249+VAT, don't really want a second hand one as it will be untested and especially as it seems to be a common failure.
Does anyone know who makes the master cylinder, did see...
