    Hi everyone, I am still waiting to get my Mi16 conversion back on the road, and it feels like the silliest of things that is stopping the car from working. After all the hurdles we've jumped with the wiring and so-on now the brakes don't hold pressure! In the pursuit of fixing this issue we have replaced the Master Cylinder, and the drum cylinders TWICE! The mechanic has gone round all 4 corners blanking the pipe and bleeding / pressurising the system to work out where the pressure is being lost, and he came to the conclusion it was the rears hence changing the rear stuff twice! Speaking to him this morning he has said that the pressure has gone again. The impression I get is that when there bled the pressure is there. Then after leaving it stood for a while the pedal just drops straight to the floor and nothing!! Worse than that in fact he is saying he's now stumped and has no-where to go. Theres no fluid loss or leaks! Really disappointed I booked the day off work today to pick it and its my birthday!! Please help, any suggestions are appreciated!!!
