Bremsen reagieren schlecht! HELP!

[Erich]

If the pedal goes all the way to the floor (slowly) when you hold constant pressure on the pedal, it is most likely a master cylinder going bad. A accumlator (bomb to us in the colonies) will give a rock hard pedal feel on an emergency or panic brake, and you would need to release pressure and reapply the brake to get a proper feel. The bomb is about $60-90 US at our parts outlets and takes perhaps an hour to install.
