As you know my Vectra C1.9 cdti 120 bhp has been losing brake fluid, needs topping up about an inch in the reservoir any 150 miles or so . No visible leaks

Kwik fit - state metal brake line is leaking.

Second garage - ATS, Claim they see no leaks

Third garage - National tyres and autocare, guy says master cylinder is leaking but claims he could see no leaks, stated on the report the pedal sinks to the floor.

.



So what am I to think the problem is ? 3 garages all contradicting each other

As soon as I took my car back from the garage today I noticed the pedal sinking to the floor . I am 99 percent sure it didn't sink to the floor before taking it to the garage today.
Here we go again! I'm more convinced now that you are just making things up. Get back on your porn sites and troll others.

Is it likely the guy today at national tyres and autocare did something to my car to cause the pedal to sink to the floor ?
I am almost certain it was not doing this until I took it to that garage today , and if it was why didn't the other 2 garages last week not mention it ?

Also the brake light came on oil needed topping up again even though I only refilled the brake oil this morning and it hasn't needed topping up until every 150 miles or so, yet after leaving garage today 3 miles later it needed topping up again
Not biting, I've had enough of you. Go and waste someone else's time. Get back to your online w anking. You are a joke.
 
Take it to a vauxhall specialist not a jumped up tyre place and they will tell you common leak is above fuel tank

I really don't know what your problem is you came across as decent to begin with now not so much at all, do you have personality disorder ?

Thanks very much I'll probably do that I had a little look at the pipe myself from what I see it looks ok

That's definitely where the leak is then.

Seriously, need to re-quote my post from other thread -

But they're not garages. Your car will be worked on by spotty yoofs who are mainly good at fitting tyres.

Ask friends, neighbours, relatives, family or colleagues if they know of a good, honest PROPER garage. Or search for one in your area here -

"Vehicle should not be driven on road, dangerous to drive, brake pedal goes to the floor."

GOOD ADVICE HERE!

AND...

"Handbrake not working, caliper siezed"

This is the handbrake that you successfully fixed, isn't it???

Rightboy91, as you're driving a dangerous vehicle with no brakes for tens of miles on public roads, I have flagged up this thread and all your others to the police.
Let me spell it out for you:

YOU ARE ENDANGERING LIFE.
SCRAP THIS SCRAP BEFORE YOU KILL SOMEONE.
COPS ARE AFTER YOU, HOPEFULLY THIS WILL BE AN INCENTIVE.

I'll check the pipes again myself but it didn't seem to be leaking when both the garage and I checked it
