What does a brake master cylinder do?

The master cylinder is the heart of your hydraulic braking system. When you press the brake pedal, it pushes fluid through the brake lines to activate the calipers or wheel cylinders, which then apply pressure to the rotors or drums to slow your vehicle.

Do I need to bleed the brakes after installing a new master cylinder?

Yes, bleeding the brake system is a critical step after installing a new master cylinder. This process removes any air that may have entered the lines during installation, ensuring proper hydraulic pressure and effective braking.

Does this master cylinder come with brake fluid?

This DFC brake master cylinder does not include brake fluid. You will need to purchase the appropriate type of brake fluid for your vehicle separately and fill the master cylinder reservoir after installation.
