Hi,
Is it just me or do you think the Panda's brakes are poor?
- I know that the brake master cylinder is on the left handside and the brake bar might have some play in it which in turn increases pedal effort.
- I did press the brake pedal with my left foot just to see if they were effective and the car came to a sudden halt.
But I find for everyday driving, I'll press my foot down on the brake to a level I think is appropriate to find that nothing has changed, so I increase my foot travel further and it'll start slowing down but my foot needs to be virtually on the floor to get good brakes.
I had the brake fluid replaced back in August 2016 (brake fluid is on max)
Any help is appreciated,
Matt.
