On my 95, I am looseing some brake fluid somewhere. There is not an obvious leak that I can see, so I suspect it is the master cylinder into the booster. Is there a rebuild kit available or is a new one in my future?
Thanks,
Randy

Did you check the back of the Caliper? Sometimes the Copper washer can corrode and casue it to leak. that happened to me on both of my fronts.

So you can't see fluid anywhere?

You really need to diagnose the problem before throwing parts at it.

FWIW a quick search doesn't show any rebuild kits available, but they're not that expensive. Or you could buy the new parts you need from Nissan, they sell the master cylinder internals separately.

Have you tried looking at all of the brake lines and junctions while someone pumps the brakes?

I looked at all the calipers when I replaced the tires the orher day and all are dry. I looked at the master cylinder and it does not have any obvious leaks that I can see with a flashlight. I have not really went through every part of the brakeing system yet, and I would before I started buying parts. I was just wondering if anyone might know whether a kit was available.
Thanks guys,
Randy

Interestingly, my 1996 has lost half of its brake fluid just yesterday, dash light came on. No obvious leaks, but will have to crawl under the car over the weekend to check. I do have some brake lines on order to replace the badly rusted lines at the back of the car, and am thinking that one of them must have rusted through and leaked.

Hello Newbe......

why not introduce yourself?

what kind of brake issue do you have?
Where do you feel this leak is?
Did this leak happen all by its self, or were you doing other brake work?

Which washer are you talking about?
A copper one perhaps?

We need more information from you before we can help

it just started out of nowhere. I read that someone said some copper washer rusted out and started leaking. it's the passenger side front caliper. I uploaded a picture. on the bottom of the caliper it looks like it's leaking.
