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 the calipers or wheel cylinders, which then apply pressure to the brake pads or shoes to slow your vehicle.

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

Yes, bleeding the brake system is a crucial step after installing a new master cylinder. This process removes any air that may have entered the brake 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 and amount of brake fluid separately to fill the master cylinder reservoir and bleed the system.
