That's what I would guess, but I never trusted that proportioning valve setup, the GTI's brakes never felt as good as a crappy Volvo I have. Going to replace the MC, does anyone think I should leave that proportioning valve? I'm thinking about getting an in-cockpit adjustable proportioning valve. Also I need a rear caliper, is it the '89-'92 that are aluminum and don't have that ratcheting piston? Do they bolt onto my '88? There's almost no $ difference.Thanks all, Steve PS What about a hydraulic handbrake anyone?

Fortunately this is easily fixed w/a new MC, and is a good opportunity to flush all the old fluid out of your brake lines.GBergtholdFrom: Steven Arguello <[email protected]> To: A2-16v-List <[email protected]> Subject: [a2-16v-list] No brakes Date: Mon, 20 Mar 2006 22:38:44 -0500While slowing down for a red light, the brake pedal went to the firewall. I dropped a gear and snuck through and at the next light the brakes were fine. Any thoughts?Thanks, Steve _______________________________________________ a2-16v-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.a2-16v.com/mailman/listinfo/a2-16v-list For list archives, see listinfo link above._______________________________________________ a2-16v-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.a2-16v.com/mailman/listinfo/a2-16v-list For list archives, see listinfo link above._______________________________________________ a2-16v-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.a2-16v.com/mailman/listinfo/a2-16v-list For list archives, see listinfo link above.
