hey i just had new brake rotors and pads installed on my car. I used to be able to slam on the brakes for whatever reason and lock up the wheels, now i cant. i have to damn near push the pedal to the floor to get it stop. Iam thinking the brake line doesnt have any pressure, any suggestions?

u forgot to bleed the line.

that could be a possibility, but if you had new pads and rotors installed, who ever did the job had no reason to even open the bleed nipples on the calipers. When you get new brakes pads, and even more pads and rotors, you have to give them time to break in, meaning brake gently with them for the first 50-75 miles. If you do not do this and go directly to hard stops and getting the pads and rotors really hot when they are brand new, you will glaze both of the surfaces, then your brakes become very inefficient. So if you did your hard braking right after getting them installed, you probably glazed your rotors and pads. In that case you may need to have your rotors resurfaced and your pads too, because they are new you can still do this. This is only my suggestion and experience. Good luck

fluid level could be low also.

if the fluid level was that low then the light would be on.....

If you want to go ahead and not check any of your fluids just because a light doesnt come on, fine by me, but i tend to trust in regular maintaince and check a little more then whether or not a light comes on.

Thanks for the info. Well the rotors are i bought are barely used and the pads are brand new. AS far as hard braking as soon as i got them on...i didnt hard brake. But the fluid level is a possiblity proably need to check that, the only objection i have of that is that i never had a problem with the pedal til i had the rotors and pads put on.

what about the brake master cylinder?
