Hey guys,

need some help with my dads car. its a 2.5 TL. the brakes feel really spongy. we have checked the brakes and the fluid. Bleed the fluide multiple times. and recently changed the brake booster but the pedal feel is still soft.

any ideas on what could be wrong. I realized this is a civic forum, if anyone know where else i could ask please let me know.

I think the brake lines might have to be changed, is there a stainless steel version of them i could try out??? or are all ss brake lines generic. meaning could i get a gsr ss brake line and use that???

any help is apprecieated.

thanks
bran.

you may have a leaky caliper or leaky lines... the master cylinder could also be bad.

those are the main reasons brakes would feel spongy. I'd visually inspect the calipers for leaks, then go ahead and change all the lines (since that's good maintenance anyways).
