i have 1996 nissan pathfinder. I have problem with the brake. why my brake fluid is keep drain so slow everytime i make any stop. I paddle the brake is very deep but still brake. I keep add more brake fluid.
So far I did, I track all the brake lines there is no leak. I bleach the front and back break wheels it help brake little bite but brake fluid keep drain. I don't know what is the problem I guess must be brake master cylinder or booster or caliper. i don't know whick one. help me out..

I think youre saying you have a low pedal? Check all brakes especially the rears, sounds like they are worn and out of adjustment, and maybe a bad wheel cylinder, if they are drum in back. How is the fluid level in the master? Add only DOT 3 brake fluid...If they are drums in back, apply the parking brake, does the pedal hieght get better?
