What does a brake master cylinder do?

The brake master cylinder is the heart of your car's 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.

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 brake fluid separately and bleed the brake system after installation to ensure proper function.
