| Description of the problem | On three occasions since mid september i would hit a road anomaly, usually a small pothole, while braking and the brake pedal would go to the floor instantly. With a few rapid panic pumps enough braking is restored to stop. Tried bleeding system after first incident but apparently that is not the problem as event happened multiple times after the bleeding. |
