Renault Master LWB, High Top. Just got in, 4 bloody hours. Bloke thinks its the slave cylinder. Brother looked at it and noticed the fluid low and thinks it might just be low fluid but in the middle of london theres bugger all places to get any.

Got it home and bled the brakes and bugger me it works ! Gonna run in round tomorrow and see how it goes, s'pose its my fault, I havent checked it for a while.

You sure it's not just the cylinder on the pedal that's knackered? These tend to let go quite often on other vans like the Transit. A lot easier to change aswell!

I'm guessing not, There was a puddle of fluid on the catch tray under the box this morning.

Dojj - That link is as good as passionford mate, it didn't work, only came up with page cannot be displayed, maybe that's got something to do with me using Firefox
