Dorman - First Stop Brake Master Cylinder P/N:M118403
Turn pedal effort into hydraulic brake pressure with the Dorman First Stop brake master cylinder M390342, a direct-fit Nissan Pathfinder master cylinder for 1996-2001 models that also fits the 1997-2001 Infiniti QX4 with all engines. Dorman designed this new unit to match the design, function and performance of the original master cylinder on the listed applications, and built it from new, high-quality materials.
Specifications: 1-inch bore diameter and two outlets, with an M10 x 1.0 secondary (rearward) outlet thread and a 1 mm primary outlet thread pitch. The reservoir and a sensor are included; mounting hardware is not included. Country of origin: Taiwan.
A master cylinder may need replacing if the brake pedal feels soft or sinks, if brake fluid leaks at the master cylinder, or if the fluid level keeps dropping. Other brake faults can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause first. If a failed master cylinder is the cause, this replaces it. Bleed the brake system after installation and follow the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and torque.

The package contains the master cylinder, with the reservoir and a sensor included. Mounting hardware is not included.
What are the signs a master cylinder may need replacing?
