Master Cylinder Replacement DIY?
Does anyone know of or have any DIY instructions for replacement of the master cylinder in a 2001 TL? I have searched this site but I haven't had any luck.

I didn't check those azine sections specifically, but I did do a search in the Second Generation forums. I also went to a local library last night and made some copies of the DIY instructions from the Haynes manual for this vehicle. Thank you for the help!

Its very easy. LIke said above. suck as much brake fluid out as possible, remove the 2 lines and place a towel under ot help catch the fluid dripping, remove the 2 bolts that hold it on. Then bench bleed the new one. reverse for install. Bleed brakes VERY good after. Bleed order as follows. LF, RF, RR, LR
