failed my m.o.t cause one of my rear brakes was under forming.
so i took it to my mates garage to fix it.
he said i cant beleive ur brakes never packed in while u've been driving!
both sides have been leaking real bad!
i needed new cilindars (spelling) on both sides
new shoes both sides
new head cilindar ( spelling again

)
and new brake fluid, i so the old brake fluid it was all lumpy and watery!

he said wen u pressed ur brake pedal down did u have to push it all the way down to the floor 4 it to work?
i said yes,
he said how longs it been like this?
i said for as far as i can rember
he said cant believe u have'nt crash, ur one lucky b~stard

not really lucky just stupid

if you knew your break pedal was going to the floor why didnt you get it looked at sooner.

Besides leaking rear cylinders is common.

Whats a head cylinder?

had to get my rear cylinders repalced as well, charged me £95 to do both sides. Then had to have something done to the caliper sliders on the front which is costing another £72.
