can our car use synthetic brake fluid?
i am asking because i put it in my bakes and it feels really light. i bleed the system and all.. but the first press feels really light, and the brake pedal goes right to the floor with lil resistance. |

if the pedal is going all the way to the floor with no holding power then its a leak which can be internal (bad master cylinder seals) or external (hole or loose fitting).
however if you pump the pedal and it is able to hold the car then its probably trapped air in the system, however air doesnt just get in on its own. -------------------- |
