Ok so I just had my rover in the shop getting some work done before winter really sets in while I was out of town working.
The master brake cylinder was replaced.
Having picked up and drove the truck around town for a day or two. the pressure started building in the brake system and the pedal was becoming very hard with little movement. Parked the truck to pick up some stuff from NAPA. upon leaving the brakes were fully engaged, the pedal was rock hard with no movement. the only way I could get out of the parking lot was relieve some of the pressure by bleeding off some break fluid.
I then had to do this again just to get home in a Walmart lot as the pressure was building up again.
back to the shop it went figuring it was something blocking the fluid in the MC
picked it up the shop said everything looked good in the MC, bleed everything again and the truck drove great for a few more days till today when the pressure built back up again.
a new MC is on the way
OK so could there be any other causes for this or is it just a faulty MC?
any suggestions would be helpful thanks
