When the MC gave up on my 115 I was sitting at a red light and the car crept forward. I thought I was having a senior moment or something and had just not held my foot on the brake pedal hard enough. Then the light turned and off I went. About a block later, I stepped on the brake pedal and it started slowly going down further than it should have. At that point I realized I had and issue that needed to be addressed so I turned around and drove it home and into the garage before it got any worse. There were no signs of leaking fluid so I assumed it was the MC that had given up.

I ordered a kit to repair it but that didn't work out. The kits originally came with a thin plastic tube that permitted one to slide the plunger in without ruining the o rings. This kit did not come with that and I was unable to find anything else that would work. I didn't really want to run the risk of damaging the o rings and having to redo the whole job so I just ordered a rebuilt unit and installed it. No further issues.
