    Break pedal

    Well i got my front pads changed and now the pedal goes all the way to the floor for it to stop. Now i searched and found out that it could be the master cylinder. I dont think i have a leak so if i bleed them will it help my pedal. (also the pedal only goes all the way to the floor when th car is turned on, and when the car is off it feels like it did before the pads were changed)

                    if there is anything wrong with the booster or something is seized such as a caliper or a wheel cylinder it will give you a harder pedal. the only (common) thing that will cause a soft pedal is air in the lines or a bad seal in the master cylinder.

                    hope you luck

                    edit: aah crap... you beat me to it. glad to hear you fixed the prob

                          That is a nice little tool. But I just use vise grips to push the piston back in. Matco wants 40 American dollars for that tool. Way too expensive when vise grips work just as well.
