Hi, I have a 1995 Jaguar xjs, 6 cylinder convertible. I noticed that after driving for a while, the break pedal sinks with minimum braking power. I drove it for couple oh hours and towards the end, it started happening. What should I do?

What should I do?

Take it to a mechanic to be repaired before it causes an accident.

You brake master cylinder is either leaking, you have fluid coming out of one or more wheels, or both. (15) How to Fix Sinking Brake Pedal in Your Car (Brake Master Cylinder) - YouTube


Thanks @justin-shepherd you're right. Sinking pedal--> Master Cylinder not booster.

Your brake booster could be bad. Best get it to a mechanic.


Bad brake boosters typically make it very hard to push the pedal forwards.
