Ok my car failed its mot as the breaking system was vertually non existant on my williams 2, When i bought the car i knocked off £200 as the breaks where so bad the previous owner took the car to BBR performance? and changed the master slave cylinder and bleed the breaks but the pedal was still really low.

Anyway 5ooo miles later and my mechanic is ordering a new master slave cylinder as hes convinced that this is the prioblem with the breaks, i found it very unusual that the same part has been changed in such little millage perhaps it was a faulty part! is this a common fault?

How much are renault master slave cylinder's?

Costing me £500 just in parts so far!! knightmare!
