Had a front end accident on wednesday night in my corsa b. Went into the back of someone at around 20-25mph. Did the n/s light, bumper, wing, and bonnet etc and stuff behind. I just drove it out of our basement at work as im getting it repaired and the brakes feel like they are not working properly. The pedal has to hit the floor. I remember when my wheel cylinder went it's the same feel. Not sure if its normal, and whether it will sort itself out the more i drive it. If anyone has any ideas it would be much appreciated. It proberly didnt help me reversing into a skip straight after cause i didnt see it lol. Cheers Guys. Si

thts a thought yh. The car has done 105k. the other question whilst im posting. This has happened since ive had the car. When i put the foot on the brake fully and release it makes the engine sound like its miss firing. Im in the wrong line of work really, lol. Im an estimator, dont ike getting my hands dirty. does anyone no roughly how much to do a brake line if its gone.
