Renault Master Brake Pedal Feedback

Hey, I'm getting strange feedback from the brake pedal on my 2017 Renault Master electric. The brake fluid level seems low. I've checked for obvious leaks in the lines, and around the master cylinder, but nothing's immediately visible. The van has 110450 km on the clock. Could it be worn brakes causing this, or am I missing something?

Hey, I had a similar issue with my old Peugeot 308. Brake pedal felt weird, and the fluid was low. I couldn't see any leaks either. Are you sure it's not the master cylinder? Maybe a seal is going bad internally?

Interesting, thanks for sharing. How did you figure out the master cylinder was the issue? Did you have any other symptoms?

Well, a mechanic suggested it as the fluid was mysteriously disappearing. It wasn't a cheap fix. But honestly, at that point, I decided it was probably time to just send the Peugeot to a workshop and let them deal with it. Turned out my suspicion was correct.

Thanks for the advice! I was hoping it wasn't the master cylinder. Sounds like a trip to the shop is in order. I'll get them to check the brakes too, though, maybe it is just wear and tear. I'll let you know how it goes. They quoted 480€ for the repair.
