Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I am at the point where i am putting brake fluid into my car at least three times a week. I don't know where the fluid is leaking though, because there are no puddles on the ground.

1 Answer

It was leaking out of the piston on the master cylinder, leaking out where the brake pedal connects to the master cylinder. My carpet was soaked through with brake fluid. I took the master cylinder apart and repaired it by cleaning it and changing the gaskets.
