Top of the morning to you all from the west of Ireland. I am new to this forum and already have found very helpfull info with issues I had with trigger points etc. I have now developed what seems to be a brake master cylinder problem as of yesterday, my brake pedal went soft and nearly to the floor over a period of 5 miles and then after parking for ten minutes the pedal was perfect again. this happened several more times throughout the day.
I have never experienced brakes going bad and then fixing themselves before, but after a search it seems that this is a master cylinder on the way out.
Is there any way to get the part number for this MC as I have found a source that shows part no 132220130 ATE for Mercedes from chassis no 033059, however my chassis last six digits are 025522.
Is there a parts catologue available for the W116.
Many thanks in advance.
Mad Mick.

Try Fastlane on this site, www.***************, or www.germanstar.net.

But any local supplier should be able to help you.
