Iniisip namin baka may gasket dun na naglealeak? Papa 2nd opinion namin sa 27 sa isang shop para sure before kami bumili ng brake master.

    Thanks doc!

    So make sure that the said leak is rectified as soon as possible.

    Good to know you've found the culprit.

    Medyo weird nga that pad wear was part of the initial diagnosis. Normally the hydraulic systems don't touch the pads at all, the furthest they make it is the pistons that push on the backing plates. Even when your pads are completely gone and you're pressing metal against the rotors it wouldn't cause brake fluid to leak.

    Try pumping the brakes hard while someone watches the suspect area. Maybe dry it off beforehand then wrap a fresh paper towel around it. If mag leak ulit while pumping the brakes you'll easily see the paper tower soak up some of that newly leaked brake fluid.

    Thanks sir! Yep I'm already looking kung saan makakabili ng brake master medyo nahihirapan ako maghanap for 2015 mazda3 2.0L.

    Tried to asked already sa Mazford 2 and Golden Isuzu pero wala pa daw sila nun. Still checking with other shops.

Brake fluid level decreasing very slowly?
