Vincy is infamous around these parts
Really need help with brakes.

Gentleman, I really need your help with this. The dealer cannot fix the sinking brake peddle. They put in a new master cylinder, no improvement. Then they did a special bleeding procedure, again no effect. Now they are waiting on rear brake pads. I don't see how this can help since the ones on there are like new. The car has been in the shop for weeks.


Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Vincy,

I would consider getting the car to a different service department and also calling the PCA ombudsman. You car needs to be examined by some top techs and the next step I would consider would be lemoning it

Have they elevated the priority on this one to Porsche Service Rep? I would think they would have by now. If they haven't as Eclou said take it to another service department or you make them schedule a time with you and the Porsche Service Rep.

I hope you get it resolved without going through the Lemon Law. I have been through it once and it was no fun. In fact it ended up being bought back from the dealer instead of applying the Lemon Law.

Caliper might be shot (internal crack/leak), take it up a notch like Lou suggested.
