Master cylinder problem???

Having a problem with my brake pedal sinking when I'm at a red light, but only when it's warm outside. Someone told me that it's probably the master cylinder, and that this is very common with Honda/Acura vehicles. I have only joined this group today, but have not seen any posts about this. Anyone having this issue?

The above thread should be all the info you need including where you should buy parts from. I originally posted the above thread about a year ago since I was having the same problems that you were having. Hope this helps.

Consecutive Master Cylinders

Our 2.5 TL has 125K miles.

The original MC died around 80K miles; it was replaced at an Acura dealer.
That one died around 100K miles; it too was replaced at an Acura dealer. This time they flushed something out that they said the previous dealer didn't do.
That one died around 115K, the same dealer said something was causing corrosion and contaminating the MC. They said they fixed it.
My wife just called and said that the MC just died again.

Is this car beyond repair or are Acura dealers just unable their own products?
