    Series 3 Stage 1 Faulty Master Cylinder

    After trying everything to get a pedal the local brake bloke suggested bleeding at the master cylinder. Well got the YB to pump and hold the pedal. Cracked the rear line and fluid pours out. Tried the front and fluid only drips out. Even with half a turn on the thread!
    So it looks like a faulty master cylinder but the seller wants me to go to a mechanic for verification for return tomorrow.
    Anyone had a faulty new brake master cylinder?

    The flexible brake hoses, can collapse internally, and look perfectly good on the outside.
    I would disconnect the lower end of the hose, and see if the fluid flows through.
    I had this problem with my S3,
