honda Civic lx91 problem need help

:banghead: i cant figure out why my break pedal keeps slowly going to the floor board. The master cylinder runs almost out in a week or less. no visible leaks.the resevoir runs low like normal. and i besides the breaks is my honda sapposed to sound and feel like a stick shift? it is a automatic. please help some one.

well, my 90' civic si brake pedal used to do the same thing but i filled the resevoir and now theres no more problem. mabye i dont notice it as much because i downshift most of the way when i slow down. anyways, check your brake fluid again...

:banghead: yeah, its full right now but see i havent been usen anti freeze cuz havent had a job lately would that effect it in any way? ive been filling my resevoir with water and trans. plz tell me its just cuz im not usening anti freeze thats the only thing i know that is not correct on my honda.

are you fucking kidding me. what are you like ten. do you know how to use grammer? 'cause the way your post sounds makes youy look retared. fix it a lil.

you need to go buy DOT 3 or 4 brake fluid.
my civic takes DOT 3... it should say on the cap of the fluid reservoir what kind you need.
anyways, you should be using the correct stuff all the time. you shouldnt need to comprimise with your own solution unless its a last resort.

my brake pedal used to depress really quickly when i first got the car. when i replaced the fluid, it didnt fix it, but it did slow it down a little.

go buy some brake fluid and replace your water and transmission fluid or whatever it is your using

ok. so. you're putting WATER and ANTIFREEZE in your fucking BRAKE FLUID RESEVOIR???

you've probably fucked it up if it's been in there any legnth of time.

i know antifreeze helps keep water from corroding things, however, just using brake fluid will ensure that your brake system will be fine for years to come.

besides... what's a small container of brake fluid cost? $.89 where i'm from. if you get the cheap stuff and buy the larger containers, you still stay under $3.

Wow. I dont know what to say. You put fucking antifreeze in your brake fluid resevoir and your asking why your brakes dont work? Damn there are some seriously stupid and fucked in the head people in this world.

Are you telling me you poured in antifreeze cause its cheaper? For one thing, brake fluid is probably cheaper than antifreeze, for another, even water would have done less damage than antifreeze. All your brake lines, Master cylinder, maybe even caliphers are shot by now. Either take your shit to a decent brake shop, or blow up your car and call it a day. (Hint the second option is easier and cheaper for a dumb ass like you).

burn ^

im sure you can find a dollar somewhere... go buy some.
if that doesnt work you can always lunge yourself infront of your car to make it stop

this guys is just messing with us, lol...he might be saying the lack of antifreeze in his car led to the brake fluid going out of the car...you know what though guys..if this guy isn't messing with us it really makes you wonder when your sitting at a stop light whether that civic bearing down on you will be able to stop, lol! This really is one of the weirdest questions I've seen in a while...BTW....as the brake pads wear the fluid level will go down slightly over time...if anything more than a little top up is required..you do have a leak, regardless of whether or not you think you do.

GO TO A MECHANIC IF YOUR NOT A WEIRDO TRYING TO STIR UP SHIT!

i think hes for real. he posted somthing asking about body kits for his LX.

speaking of brakes...
*some friends of mine asked me to drive a car out of our auto shop at my school yesterday and they didnt say that they took off all the brakes. i was in the car trying to step on the brakes and pull the emergency brake as they were pushing me backwards into a parking spot. nudged some guys brand new VW bug. scared the shit outta me to say the least.

pointless story^

at least i know i wasn't the only thinking ^ all that.

at least i know i wasn't the only thinking ^ all that.

look i never said anti freeze is in the fucking brake cylinder .damn read the fucking shit before you say that about my car damn. i asked does me not putting anti freeze in my radiator do anything to my brakes .i use dot 3 oil in my master cylinder like normal. the problem is the brake fluid runs out in less then a week and my brake's go to the floor if i dont go fast. on high ways its fine. going 35 my pedal is to the floor. Serious people that know what im talking about plz help me cuz im not bull shiting . i havent seen any leaks around the master cylinder.

well ur first post was definately mis worded and quite confusing lol and that stick auto sounding stuff...hrmm i dunno..but if i was u i would start by filling up the brake fluid res and then start the car and have a buddy pump the brakes and go around checking for leaks..make sure all the bleeders are tight..sometimes a soft pedal could also be a frozen caliper..but as for the brake fluid loss..there has to be a leak somewhere..also im not sure where ur from but keep in mind some of us are are experiencing freezing temps..it would prolly be wise for u to flush and fill ur coolant..i know ur not working but walmart has some cheap antifreeze..

Jeez... you're kidding right? You can buy pre-mixed water/antifreeze at Walmart for like 3-4 dollars.

I know a lot of us don't use perfect grammar and/or sentences when posting but a little effort at trying to sound like you attended elementary school would help in trying to gain actual solutions from us to your automotive queries. In other words, make sense or you won't get answers to your problems...

mabye read over what you wrote before you post it?
if you sound like an idiot, people will think you are one

:banghead: ive been filling my resevoir with water and trans. plz tell me its just cuz im not usening anti freeze thats the only thing i know that is not correct on my honda.


"I've been filling my resevoir with water and trans"

We arent fucking psychic here buddy. How do you expect anyone to realize the resevior you mentioned wasn't your brake resevior, in a thread specifically about brakes, even after deadcivic specifically asked you about your BRAKE fluid resevior. No one was able to magically understand the jiberish you said, whether you meant coolant resevior or whatever. WTF is "trans" anyway?

Besides, anyone who thinks a cooling system has anything to do with brakes, and would even mention it in their thread is a fucking dumb ass. Like i said, either blow up your car while sitting in it, learn english, or GTFO.

CRXperiment..lets watch some porno's and smear peanut butter all over ourselves

:lol:

okay, So my car will need anti freeze okay.no big deal on my brakes has nothing to do with it well i guess i just got schooled heh.Anyways just change my breaks out with the new set i just bought and the brake fluid should last longer???Like i said no leaks i checked.I only bought a set for the front that wont really fuck with my car will it because all you really need is the front i think am i right? But yeah i dont know anything about cars just were all my fluids and coolants go thats about it and changing parts like tires and the obvious..........

hey john how do we go from brakes to breaks? lol funny shit..

how old are you?

or should i say how's life as a freshmen loser?

how did you buy brakes if you have no job or money?

Anyways just change my breaks out with the new set i just bought and the brake fluid should last longer?

who the fuck said anything about changing your brakes? you don't even know if that is the problem yet.

the front brakes are important but the rears are helpful, otherwise they wouldn't be there.

Stop typing in bold!!!
Please, read what you are writing before you post. Honestly, I can't understand some of what you say. It's not even proper english. I'm not trying to be an ass, but I really have a hard time understanding what you are trying to say.

thats thats the juggalo talk
