Hey guys first time posting so let me know if i do anything wrong!
I've bought an 09 Jimny to learn about cars. The brakes are really spoungy, no matter how many times i bleed them - they feel good for about 5 min then they go back to having to put my foot all the way down! Having scoured the forum I'm getting a little confused on them, so I'm hoping for clarity.
1. Does the ABS model come with a proportioning valve? I read in previous post that a failure to bleed this creates issues but I'm struggling to confirm whether the ABS model comes with this!
2. I'm assuming its the master cylinder that needs replacing (assuming I sort above out) - is there any difference in the master cylinder between ABS/non ABS models?
3. Is there anything else I could be doing wrong/anything else i should check for before buying a new master cylinder?
The ABS light is also on (its been on the whole time since i bought it). From what i can gather this is/will be a separate issue but thought i should mention it as well.
Thanks in advance - I'm just getting started learning about all this stuff so please bear with me
