Sifu, I've changed my rear right hand brake pump about 3 months back and now the problem persists again - no brake fluid (its leaking somewhere somehow):banghead:. Any other possible ideas what the problem could be so I can refer to the foremen to check tomorrow morning?

Thanks guys
 
there are 2 brake pump, master (top) & slave (bottom), i supposed u change the top one. so now the bottom one is leaking.

or when u changed your master pump the last time, did u change the whole thing or just by using the repair kit?

Get the foreman to check. Brake master cylinder and the rear two pumps. You right hand one was changed, maybe the left one giving problem?

Brake pump master got 2 pumps? or do you mean clutch?
 
How old is your car gothculture? Check for leaks at your brake hoses. If you're still on the OEM rubber hoses they will crack and wear out after many years. If you're on steel braided make sure they stay clean cuz dust and rocks will kill it. Either way check for leaks.

If you're really unlucky like me, the oil seal in the caliper might be leaky and that is impossible to replace cuz no one sells this part. Have to change the whole caliper or test different o-rings to see if they will do the trick
